To my Westie Coastie, I stand corrected! I thought of you all, then left it out because I got off on another track.I was wrong. But, I don’t mean you are not important. You are increasingly vital, engaged, and proud. Mea culpa!
This is a “yeah, but” moment with one of my favorite mentors. What about the Coast Guard. Still an armed service of the United States. Over 8,000 Coast Guardsmen served in Viet Nan in a variety of naval missions. Seven of the names on the Viet Nam memorial are Coast Guardsmen. And, yes, even the Coast guard is mission it’s recruiting goals. Thanks, Cynthia, for the thought provoking writing.
