Penguin Photo Bomb An Adelie penguin stands in front of the crew of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Polar Star beside the ship while hove-to in the ice in the Ross Sea near Antarctica, Jan. 31, 2015. Petty Officer 3rd Class Cassidy Stevens and Petty Officer 3rd Class Collette Herrman, storekeepers aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Polar Star, placed on their new collar devices during an advancement ceremony held on the ice and were posing with the crew for a group picture when this guy made an appearance. Stevens and Herman are the ones in short sleeves. It's not a fashion statement but part of the ceremony. Polar Star's crew is underway in Antarctica in support of Operation Deep Freeze 2015, part of the U.S. Antarctic program, managed by the National Science Foundation.
