Happy Birthday, Coast Guard!! :saluting2:


I've been desperate in the past month to "stream" the movie "The Finest Hours" but with no luck, but haven't given up. I heard it's a really good movie, and I hope truly representative of our coast guard.

It's better for the CG then "Onion Head" was, but still has moments that are "made for tv" :rolleyes:
