Lets make this easy, started in the navy in 79 as an HTFA and left 83 as HT2 (SW),
went into the Coast Guard in 83 as a DC2 and left active duty in 95 as a DC1, went into the Coast Guard Reserve in 95 and retired 4/1/2009 as a DCCS. Currently a Firefighter/EMT with the Naval District Washington Fire dept (Co. 28) in Dahlgren VA. Also a life member of the Stafford Vol. FD (Co.2)in Stafford VA. Thats my story and I'm sticking to it....

John, which dept. are you in in NC?

Comment by John on July 10, 2009 at 2:14pm

Hello every one,

Don't hold this against me. I started out as DC and converted to HT in early 70's. When DC came back, I was told I was not qualified and remained HT. After 27 years, retired as HTC. Had more good times than bad. Now a Capt. of and engine company in North Carolina. Been in fire service for 38 years and still love it.

Hello all!

I served with the Coast Guard Aux. for five years.
Worked out of The Fire Island Station on LongIsland, NY
I served from 1999 to 2004. When I started it was run by
The Department of Transportation, and when I left it was
The Department Of Homeland Security. It was a great experiance
for me. I was proud to be a part of the Guard.
