No worries, we do all the real work that's done on the flightline.

I don't think a lot of people realize that a lot of small boats, to include LCVP landing craft, were crewed not just by sailors, but by coast guardsmen as well. It would be nice to have that portrayed.

Essentially, the CG manned everything from "Mike Boats" up to Destroyer Escorts and Attack Transports. Some ships were even composed of a mixed USN/USCG crew like the SAMUEL CHASE.

I wonder if a Coastie K9 patrol on the California coastline would count as PTO....Always wanted to do that one.

Thanks. Yeah but we think she may have some husky in there too. I would never own any other type of dog other than GSDs or a Belgian Malinois or a Husky.

... However, my pooch is back in Maryland and is a little old for this kind of thing anyway. Maybe down the road we'll see.
