“The U.S. Coast Guard Day honors the military branch that protects our waters and shorelines. The U.S. Defense Department suggests that this day is largely an internal celebration for all Coast Guard personnel and their families, past and present. But, we’d like to encourage everyone to honor the brave members of this important branch of the military.      

      Celebrate U.S. Coast Guard Day by learning more about the responsibilities and functions of the U.S. Coast Guard. They are now playing an even more extensive role in Homeland Security to protect our country.”

Celebrate U.S. Coast Guard Day

While visiting my parents this past week in Wilmington, North Carolina we visited the U.S. Coast Guard on the Wilmington Riverwalk.
