First thing I was asked when I was stationed there in 2011 straight from boot camp is what did I do to get in trouble to get stationed there. Should’ve been a red flag. Lots of unnecessary drama on that base while I was there. There were a few good people there but prepare to end your career there.

My father was stationed here at the start of his 25 year career in the coast guard over 62 years ago. I will be coming to see it myself in 2 days... first time back in Charleston since he died 22 years ago.

The best hard working group of people. They are really nice to me and I love to help them smile. If you are out boating they will come help and save you if necessary. Semper Paratus!
