I have served in the Canadian Coast Guard for over 35 years and proudly promote and represent the CCG. There are many, many people in Canada who do not even know of the existence of the CCG, and many others who do not know what the CCG does. This is my small attempt to promote an organization that I believe deserves much better publicity.
