Read that today myself. Happy 225th to the U.S. Coast Guard. They provide an invaluable service to this country, and i know many C.G. Veterans. God bless you all and keep up the great work.
....Everyone knows that in water 6ft and under the Coast Guard have jurisdiction...that's why it's a requirement that all Coasties be 6 feet tall....so if their boat sinks they walk back to shore.
