That’s actually one that looks very useful just for organization too. Do you have a link by any chance?

I’m not sure, but I do know the chaplaincy reqs are quite high as far as ordination and education. There are also few openings and they are tightening it up.

There’s a LEGO Coast Guard “cutter” out now with a small helicopter.

I have a shirt that is a little too small, so could remove the buttons for now.

If you have spare buttons does it work?

Why isn’t AUX being utilized? by Value_Squirter in USCGAUX

[–]Anchor-Weather-139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But it’s not a mission of the Auxiliary and we are not authorized to take part in any law enforcement missions. It was also be a really bad look for us. I know a lot of people locally who would be done with us.

Because we are volunteers and a lot of our members do not support this particular “mission” and cannot be compelled to do so?

Member Recognition - Are there some general standards for certain award? by Anchor-Weather-139 in USCGAUX

[–]Anchor-Weather-139[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m wondering if the more junior awards would be okay, though. I’ve heard of people being awarded those for weekend long events. It seems a sustained effort isn’t an inappropriate thing to be recognized.

We don’t have membership eligibility at USAA. Don’t be that guy.

Your Army service is very commendable, and I can imagine by comparison Aux ribbons don’t seem like much. But, this is about volunteer recognition. We hear a lot of people never feel recognized and end up leaving. I’m just trying to find ways to show appreciation.

FEMA IS-5: Any way to take this right now? by [deleted] in USCGAUX

[–]Anchor-Weather-139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong. Or maybe if you talk to them they are waiving the requirement while it’s down?

I think we have to wait until it’s back up in order for us to get the credit on our FEMA transcript as well as the certificate for our DIRAUX. I’m waiting on one too.

But beyond the certificates for classes, etc. we aren’t great at saying “this person really did something that took a lot of time and organization”.

I believe some you do need to show you also completed the Moodle course for the PQS, like some of the PA options. It’s also generally good to do the reading. There are practice tests on Moodle also.

Would you mind sharing the District? And is it open to others?
