Waaaaay too many resources that are available to this nations security (RKBA the original homeland security bill) like yourself that all too often go unwanted or unnoticed. Glad your there Tonkin !!

Now Stay Safe and keep that PFD handy !

Bump to you Tonk!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!

[Dutchgirl]

Congratulations!

I followed the link on the info for Coast Guard Auxillary. My Mom,(former WAVE) now 68 years old, was in the Auxillary for a while. It's true that they don't have any age limits there.

While I realise that the drug interdiction, and oil platform fire training is probably a little beyond most of us, the valuable support of volunteers allows the Coast Guard to better utilize it's man power. You're doing important work!

WOOOHOOOOO!!! Way to go, Tonkin!! This news tickles me to death, that your dedication to your duties with the Coast Guard Auxilliary has been noted and rewarded. They know a good man when they see one. Congratulations!!

Thank you for your continuing service to the country, Tonk.

Congratulations Tonkin! *big smile*

Congratulations, Tonk! You have taken your position very seriously and it shows! Thanks for being there and doing what you do. Oregon surely has a safer coastline because of it, and the USA is a better place.

Congrats, my Brother.

SALUTE!!!

BZ!
I always appreciated the Aux when I was at Station Rockaway. I retired in '01 as an HSC, my son is now on the Campbell.
As an aside my brother was on the Bennington and Kearsarge in the Gulf, I have one of those Yacht Club patches around here somewhere...
Semper Paratus!!
