As a veteran of the armed forces, and a mother of three. My youngest whom just turned 18 is stationed in Key West Fl., and we are all so very proud to be a part of the USCG family. I am so very proud of my son, and proud to know that he and his coast guard family are serving our country.

Thank you and be safe!!!!!!

Hello;

Many thanks for showing off our ship! After almost forty years of service, she makes us plank-owners proud. I recently received a message from Capt. Paul Lutz, CO of Sherman when we took her out of the yards, and in Vietnam. Thanks to all who all who served aboard her, and all the best to those who serve today. That's my personal idea of what he said for all of us. To those who serve aboard her now, you are the best crew aboard the best ship in the USCG fleet. Take care of her!!

As a mother who carried my child, gave birth, and watched as my child grew into adult hood, I spent many hours wondering what the future of my child would be.

I remember my son as a child whose life I was entrusted to protect and keep safe. Now his mission helps protect and keep safe the country.

I look upon my child with different eyes, torn between the man who is a guardian of the sea and the child who came running to me when he was playing at the beach because the waves got too big or when he came to me afraid of imaginary see monsters. A helpless feeling overwhelms me when I realize that fact he is part of the US military.

I wonder what he faces during the course of his day and how the experiences will change his life. I reflect on the child he was, the man he was before he was a coasty.

And think of all the people out at see that might need his help someday and how grateful for his presence they will be. His career is respected by many.

I suppose that should be some comfort to me. I know that some people look at him as a hero for the work he is doing in the coast guards and that honors me. He is no longer my child he is my hero and always will be.

In my heart I feel success and stand back proud of my child. He is my greatest accomplishment.

A Proud Coast Guard Mom moment!

I think you are the most elite service and I look up to all of you. Great job on everything you do.
