As the USN continues its slow goodbye to 355 ships, what are some other measures it can use to expand maritime power, presence and influence?
Would better and expanded integration, support, and interoperability with the USCG be part of the answer?
Our guest this Sunday from 5-6pm Eastern for the full hour to discuss this and all thing USCG will be Chuck Hill, and we’ll used his recent post, Navy, this is Coast Guard, we need to talk as a starting off point for our discussion.
Chuck graduated from the USCG Academy in 1969, and retired in 1991, Assignments included four ships, Rescue Coordination Center New Orleans, CG HQ, Four years in HQ in the Military Readiness branch, Fleet Training Group San Diego, Naval War College (Command and Staff Course), and Pacific Area/Maritime Defense Zone Pacific Ops/Readiness/Plans/Exercises.
Afloat, he served on the McCulloch (a 311′ WAVP/WHEC), Confidence when it was homeported in Kodiak, Duane (a 327′ WPG/WHEC and my avatar in its WWII form), and Midgett (the WHEC).
He is one of the premier USCG bloggers for the last decade and can be found at, https://chuckhillscgblog.net/
