This is a reminder that the Coast Guard does a dangerous job everyday, defending the Homeland...

A reminder that our men and women of the US Coast Guard are in danger in the fight against terrorism just as are those of the other military branches.

I'll say a prayer for the family, friends and fellow Coasties.

Very sad to hear. I've been reading a lot of USCG rescues stories and about many other things they do, so with all the happy we must remember there is also the occasional sad.

We will keep him in our prayers, as well as his family and crew.

Sorry to hear the news! Yes...the USCG's duties can be very dangerous EVERYTIME they leave the shore!

Prayers to his family and others!
