Shipmates,
My thanks to all of you who are standing the watch this weekend. I can't think of a better way to celebrate the 4th of July than by serving the Nation.
If you have not had the chance to do so please read the Commandant's Independance Day Message.
An excerpt:
4. YOUR SERVICE, INCLUDING OUR RESERVE, CIVILIAN, AUXILIARY AND RETIREE MEMBERS, IS PRESERVING THE GUARANTEE THAT OUR FOUNDING FATHERS PASSED DOWN TO US 235 YEARS AGO TODAY - OUR UNALIENABLE RIGHT TO LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. THIS IS OUR WAY. THIS IS WHAT WE DO. WE ARE THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE U.S. COAST GUARD.
5. STAND A TAUT WATCH. SEMPER PARATUS.
6. ADMIRAL BOB PAPP, COMMANDANT, SENDS.Here are a few of my thoughts as we kick off the holiday weekend:
