[californiadisasters] FW: The Coast Guard's 222nd Anniversary

My service will be 222 years young this Saturday.  There are a lot of information pieces on the Coast Guard at Military.com that you might find interesting J - http://www.military.com/coast-guard-birthday?ESRC=coastguard.nl.

 

Here's a link to a Coast Guard Story by Scott Price, CG Deputy Historian, which focuses on Coast Guard Search & Rescue Operations in Response to Hurricane Katrina in late Aug and Sep 2005.  This article also highlights the Coast Guard's Role in Emergency Management for which it always does so well - www.uscg.mil/History/katrina/DarkestDay.pdf :)

 

Semper Paratus!

 

Very Respectfully,
