WELCOME to the Coast Guard Channel Social Network

On the 24th of this month in 2009 we said, "goodbye" to our shipmate and CG Channel Community member Bosun "Bernie" Webber. Sometime soon in 2012 his namesake the BERNARD C. WEBBER, the first of the Sentinel-class Fast Response Cutters (USCG has not announced date) will be commissioned.

We're optimistic that the Coast Guard Channel and Tam Communications will experience the prosperity we've all worked so hard to achieve and hope the same for all of our Community and business partners, friends and families as well. Please consider becoming a sponsor or making a donation. Thank you for your support.

Looking for a unique gift or some very cool art? Make sure you visit our Coast Guard Channel Store where we carry DVD's, Toys, Games, Patches, Emblems, Books and much more. A purchase there helps support your CG Channel Community.

Dave, I agree with your choice of music...my favorite instrument is sax (I played slide trombone until I realized I had no musical talent). I could argue that boots randolph may be the best on sax, but can't provide any proof other than…

We did a project in Ecuador one year and our rock driller was this late 50ish really overweight guy, Ira Brooks. The project called for a slew of holes to be drilled on a rock slope that was covered in about two feet of thick mud. The regular Army…
