Bump! Let folks you know that there is truly a need here. In the San Francisco Bay area, since the Alameda NAS was shut, we viritually have no marine defense system.

Just this year the Coast Guard made the decision to cut back on personnell to free up money to upgrade their aging fleet of vessels. They are the only coastline defense we have on the Pacific between San Diego and Seattle, and they are undermanned, and many times are captaining 30 to 40 year old vessels. They are very much in need of support from the civilian population. If you can help, click on the link to contact the Auxillary.

Many officers on our police forces and fire fighters are Reservists in the military. Give your local station a call to see if you can help fill in.
