Do any of our FReeper Coast Guard veterans want to list their service on our military table of honor? If so, please provide the details. Regardless, thank you for your service. Here's a blank template with placeholder text until I receive actual dates and details.
FReeper veteran Coast Guard 19XX - 19XX, details placed here FReeper veteran Coast Guard 19XX - 19XX, details placed here FReeper veteran Coast Guard 19XX - 19XX, details placed here I have already built the tables for the Air Force, Marines, NAVY and National Guard tables of honor.
After I build tables for each branch, I will create a master table of all military willing to share their service, so that all user names would appear in alphabetical order and be easier to reference regardless of branch of military service. I will update all branch tables with the latest entries when I create the master table. Then I will update the combined table quarterly, at the conclusion of each FReepathon (quarterly).
Please accept my gratitude for your service.

We should honour the 6’ navy.
The Coast Guard is the strong nucleus around which the Navy forms in time of war.
They do good work. I hear that joke once and thought it was a great joke.
The reason you have to be 6’ to be a coast guard is so you can walk to shore when your boat sinks.
I am only 5 11 and I made 24 years and 4 cutters. But I can swim :-)
Cool, but how are you going to verify their heights?
I don’t think most American realize the Coast Guard is one of the Armed Forces. They even sometimes do combat duty. Coast Guard petty officer Douglas Munro (posthumously) received the Medal of Honor for heroism while piloting a Higgins boat at Guadalcanal in WWII.

The United States Coast Guard members serve overseas regularly.
Ongoing missions include law enforcement and international partnerships.
Anoreth?
I’d want to be stationed along the Carolina coast.
