Filing through Bellot Strait and into history, three U.S. Coast Guard ships follow in the wake of Canadian Arctic Patrol ship HMCS Labrador, forging the second key links of a deep-draft short-cut Northwest Passages routed by the U.S. Navy's military Sea Transportation Service. The leading United States Ship making transit of Bellot Strait is the many purpose, U.S. Coast Guard utility icebreaker Storis (WAG-38) followed by U.S. Coast Guard tenders Bramble (WAGL-392), and Spar (WAGL-403). All four ships participated in survey work and proved the 17-mile, one mile wide waterway navigable by deep-draft ships. Critical areas in the trans-continental for northern water route were determined by Military Sea Transportation Service to be the James Ross and Ballot Strait.
