Alaska and the USCG

Posted on 2 November 2009 by Jim Dolbow | Comments

The Anchorage Daily news writes,

“The Coast Guard plays a huge role in Alaska, so any time Congress works on a bill affecting the agency, there’s a good chance Alaska has a big stake in the outcome. That’s the case with the Coast Guard’s 2010 authorization bill, which recently passed the House.”

more here for a recap of provisions in the 2010 Coast Guard Authorization bill that impacts Alaska.

What do you think?

    I am going to post this here because I am stationed in AK even though what I am going to talk about doesn't really have to do with the topic.

    The CG isn't all law enforcement and flying helos. I looked at your goodies and freebies section and all I see is that. Please don't forget about the hard working buoy tenders that are out there. We seem to get overlooked a bit. It would be nice to show people the other side of the CG. You have a great site and I enjoy reading up on the scuttlebutt out there but try to post some stuff about AtoN. Thanks.
