This position does not have a mission, there are no leadership opportunities, and is an ineffective use of Coast Guard resources. Every member of the Coast Guard should want to, and should be expected to, contribute in some…

In the past decade the US Coast Guard has made weight standards a part of its military service. All Coast Guard military personnel will be screened against weight and body fat standards every April and October. Although having weigh-ins semiannually is a good start, it still is not enough. There are so many people in the Coast Guard that do not eat healthy or exercise enough regularly even with the weight and body fat standards program in place. These people end up waiting until a few weeks…

I personally have never liked the Gold Coast and neither,…

A tyrant, however, can influence people to accomplish goals through intimidation, but that is not an…
