Coast Guard Investigative Service

Reserve Training Coordinator for the Coast Guard Investigative Service The Coast Guard Investigative Service (CGIS) lacks an effective method of managing training opportunities across the service for the reserve force.

many ways, The Great War had faded for Jake. He’d learned to quiet his haunting memories during the day, but sleep often eluded him. Everything he wanted to forget revisited him at night, and the confined space easily transported him to the muddy trenches of France. Jake wrapped a blanket around his shoulders and settled in on his deck, watching the western sky transition into the deep velvet night. His old infantry habits surfaced as he scanned the waterfront for movement. He knew that…

see her high school friends waiting on the family crowd enjoying their supper. Monroe looked up them. “Remember, we’re playing for the kids now. The party starts later.” “Yes, boss,” Winston replied. They opened with The Tennessee Waltz and followed it with an easy foxtrot. Amid the married couples, danced arriving fathers with their crinoline-dressed daughters. The band played on as the shadows grew longer from last outside light. As fathers drifted off the floor carrying sleepy young’uns…

Another agency that was present during this time but failed to impressive was…
