John Lee:
First article I have seen about the coast guard in DC for the ‘Inauguration’.

Anacostia and Potomac Rivers closed in DC through January 25, 2021.

The boats are armed with 240-caliber fully automatic rifles mounted to their bows.

There are ‘hundreds’ of members deployed.

My fellow Americans, we’ve been through a lot this past year, but through it all, I have seen the strength and resilience of the American people shine forth.

And looking out at all of you, and remembering the countless heroes we have met along the way these past four years, and the grace of Him who has ever guided the destiny of this Nation, I have faith that the day will come when we put these challenging times in the past...

and emerge stronger and better than ever before. We will heal our Land, renew our strength, and the best days for the greatest Nation on earth are yet to come, for this one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and

justice for all.
