Happy Coast Guard Day!

Well the Coast Guard is one of those agencies that has differing missions and bosses. In peacetime they are a law enforcement agency and originally fell under Department of the Treasury until the post 9/11 revamp of things, after which it became part of Homeland Security. It becomes part of Department of Defense, and then legally an armed service, at the direction of the President in time of war. Law enforcement and armed services are two different animals. So you can understand the confusion on some folks part.

But yes, a Happy Coast Guard Day to all of that particular breed of swabbies ;)
