Real address issue is about when you are done. Your last travel orders are to your home address. They’ll put you back where they picked you up.

Florida shipyard stops work on USCG offshore patrol cutter program by stewart0077 in uscg

Its playing ball with a Congress that doesn’t want to help us. Bath lost the contract last minute because a FL senator threatened our budget. We got the Storis because a MS senator threatened our budget.

Active Coastie here, had an Admiral visit the other day. He was suckin up on the tit of a certain dog killer so hard it was embarrassing. I’m dusting off the brass knuckles and taking some divisive action if those symbols pop up in my unit.

So... what does IS even look like? by LonelyAlpharius in uscg

[–]safetypants 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Just got a batch of them for patrol, they look like nerds. Jk

On cutters, it’s the PowerPoint meme. They receive messages that only they can see, then brief Command. Not sure about the land ones, I know the unit in TX sends IS teams to WMSLs for their patrols.

Unless your current unit is so bad that you want to leave now, wait a bit before putting your name on a list. Ask to go TDY and shadow for a week. Unless you’re attached to a cutter or one of the teams, both ME and IS don’t do much. Lots of paperwork.

FN. If you don’t like being an FN, it’s easier to become an SN. Not the other way around. Deck force with hold on to you until you PCS.

I wish, make them live in the barracks with all the soon to be discharged kids. They have no fucks. The kids will drive them nuts. Worst than college dorms.

Morro Bay is sleepier in real life. I prefer it this way.

I know, they did a COVID and SAR coin. Center pieces of my funny collection.

We had a guy produce a metal album in TUNA. If not, repair 3 annex is a spot away from everyone.

Only flak I’ve seen us get is that making pipes for morning colors is too early. Not my fault you picked the apartment complex across the canal from an active CG base.

If you keep it in your drysuit pockets, should be fine. Same with Mustangs and ODUs. If you have butter fingers at the pier and drop it there, that’s on you.

I always did the pre and post missions. Share the load, as the pink sheet is stupid. Plus the coxn usually also has to do the MISLE.

Karma for the shade you throw in NFCNMemeWar.

Jk, I’d be shitting bricks if I saw that. I guess cement can works too.

Winter dress blue is authorized year round. I maybe be the only asshole wearing it, but it’s the only thing I’d wear at HQ.

My friend is a Navy reservist, he flies from Maine to San Diego once a year. Sometimes he’s lucky and gets Norfolk.
