I don't believe these boaters were aware of the exercise.
And I know they didn't know they would be rousted in the middle of the night.
Besides, we need to be able to perform exercises without this kind of harassment of innocent civilian boaters who are docked and asleep.
Lt Warren said he wouldn't do it again.
For now, I will take his word for it. But I doubt this will be the end of the story for him. Apparently it was his call to roust these innocent and unsuspecting docked and sleeping boaters in the middle of the night.
Not a good call by any measure.
"It is Scary that this can happen in America... The terrorist have won once we have lost our civil rights."
And what exactly did happen?
One sided reporting, again, about so called military abuses.
Gee that's what hanoi kerry did in the 70's
"I don't believe these boaters were aware of the exercise."
How come no one in WA "complained"
They knew, beforehand.
So let me know when the Coast Guard investigation is done.
"You're still trying to excuse your behavior.
You were never in uniform anywhere."
takenoprisoner : This should be easy for you to prove false.

If you look at what is in the background I think you see a
terrorist rich target.

Just click on my FR profile.
I just asked that you settle this about your service.
I did NOT ever question it but was suprised you didn't respond to others.
PS And Neil E. Wright has a copy of my DD 214 on file with VetsCoR
I proved my stations post haste. You guys are way too slow and I will have to consider that you are making it up from this juncture

PS As further "proof" Jim Robinson and redrock, on seperate occasions, have visited me at Station Coos Bay.
It's all on my FR profile page

So you are about the Constitution then. You know we swore an oath to uphold it. I don't find this midnight roust constitutional, and I doubt dwight will either.
Remember our obligation? We only obey those orders we know to be lawful and do not obey an order we know to be unlawful.

"I don't find this midnight roust constitutional"
So now is's a "midnight roust"
I thought it was a 10:30 PM "roust".
I believe yours is true. My god, I've been on your ping list for years.
My bad. That was intended for my friends darksheare and mikeiniraq.
These are the guys whose service is in doubt.
Here you go, make a difference
and teach the Coast Guard a thing or 2

I am abroad and not in CONUS,
Tonk is a sailor from way back and went CG to serve again while others just post.
Tonk, WHat's up, Sailor??
Hey Marine!
Long time no see.
I'm not your 'friend' pal.
You've so far gone tangential and repeatedly tried to take the focus off of your statement.
Not going to work.
I served in B/Battery 1/156 Field Artillery 7AUG96 to 8AUG02.
Next?
What's up.. Takenoprisoner said the Coast Guard were "gestapo warriors" in post 575 and has taken the past three days trying to defend the statement.
