"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. "

Thank You Senior Chief!
And tell your son I said:
"Thank You for your service to our country."

"Congratulations, Tonk. Way to go!"

Thank You Jim.
Credit should be given to hedgetrimmer.
Right after 9/11 I tried to get back in the Navy and then join the Oregon National Guard.
Both said I was too old.
Then I read hedgetrimmer's thread on joing the Coast Guard Auxiliary.
And the rest is history!

Congratulations! Sounds like a wonderful assignment. I loved my short-lived (2 year) stint w/ the USCGA, and miss being out on the water. Way to go! :)

Q: Why do you need to be six feet tall to join the USCG?
A: So you can wade ashore when your ship sinks!

Just joshing, good job Coasties.
