For the record
In March 2001 the Coast Guard Budget was cut by 10% by Congress and approved by President Bush.
Just about a year later President Bush promised the Coast Guard more money for equipment and raises.

Regular Coast Guard Total 35,000
Coast Guard Reserves Activated since 9/11 2900

The Coast Guard increased its vigilance, readiness, and patrols
to protect the country’s 95,000 miles of coastline,

During the period from Sept. 11 to March 25, local San Francisco Auxiliarists have spent about 13,000 hours assisting Coast Guard missions, which have included patrolling the bay, standing watch, providing administrative support to local Coast Guard units and driving the Sea Marshals to and from embarkation and disembarkation points.

“They are a force multiplier. They add presence on the water by flying the Coast Guard colors,” says CWO Charles Kemnitz.

It was your "We need You" thread in Sept 2001 that got me involved in the Coast Guard Auxiliary.

Looks like the Chinese have pre-positioned themselves to be of help to our enemies.

What power they have had to make fools of our "leaders."

[mikhailovich]

Russia? hahhahaha. Time to read some new books pal.

Is this a statement, thought of opinion, warning, or threat?

I developed a fondness for Star Trek at his knee, but he didn't discover Dr. Who until I'd moved away from home. Personally, I believe he's been looking forward to retirement just so he could try to view every last episode! :)
