Happy Birthday to the Coasties serving now and in the past.

What the Coast Guard men and women do with their boats, ships and heliocopters in rescue and other missions borders on the "How did they do that!"

Now they are bringing the best seamanship in the world to protect our ports and waterways. Then, they are the people who 'temporiarly' take over the bridge of USN war ships to board questionable boat in the waters used by al Qaeda. Then they lead the parties to board these boats.

It is without a doubt a great way to serve and protect America in war and peace by being a Coastie!

Living here in Mi. we hear a lot about the Coasties rescuing folks out on the great lakes all the time! [Especially during ice fishing time]

I can imagine.

I have a few friends who live out there in the Midwest, near the Great Lakes region. It must be a great place to relax.

That is, if you know how to ice fish.

What kind of bait do you use for that type of fishing anyway?

After such a crushing loss, did the Bruckenthal family retreat into anti-govt. hatred? I lead the family on a tour of the ship simulators facility here at the Academy last month. The young men of this patriot family are focused on attending the Academy to pick up the flag and continue the charge.
