wow… the CG, eh? you know that I absolutely regret getting out of the CG now that I’ve been out in the ‘real world’ for several years. There is so much benefit to serving in the military that I think everyone (well, within reason) should serve. You have a broader respect for people, life, your country, and the world in general. Being in the Coast Guard made me a much stronger, well-rounded and travelled, mature, honorable, respectable person with a high set of values and work ethic. I would not trade my 8 years for anything in this world. I got to travel to all sorts of places, meet all sorts of interesting people (many of whom I still keep in contact with), see some fabulous (and not-so-fabulous) places- all at the expense of the govt. I personally would encourage people to see what the CG has to offer… it is the smallest of the 5 branches in the military, is more laid-back, and is a very tight-knit group. Due to the size of the service, you often know people no matter where you get stationed or know of someone who knows someone who is/was there.

I’m not saying you should join the CG. I personally don’t want to thrust my ideas of military service onto people, but I think that for a person who loves to travel and meet new people and have a steady, rewarding career, then the military- at least the Coast Guard- is a great way to move forward. I think the most difficult aspect of the military is the fact that in a sense, the govt owns you… and Nick, you know the things that Bruce & I go through… you make plans for some event, and at the last minute, he has to get underway for some mission (or morale golf tournament
Before you make any rash decisions, let’s have a sit-down session first… let me be your recruiter
