I love this idea, but because of how active the coast Guard is today I wish it was a little more modern and maybe a rescue copter. And leave out the ground force stuff.

230th anniversary – a nice round number and yet still odd. Couldn’t have done it in 1990 for 200 yrs, and can’t wait until 2040 for a 250th anniversary.
Wait – I’m sure they’ll do another one in 2040 because Congress can’t help but commemorate the military, beginning, and end of wars. At least they haven’t forgotten the lunar landing, but what about the Hubble telescope? Or the PC? The mouse? Graphical User Interface (i.e. icons?). I guess these major advances in technology don’t deserve recognition in the eyes of Congress.

A good move IMO. The Coast Guard often seems to be low on the radar versus the other four service branches; this recognition’s well-deserved.

My cousin was in the coast guard. I’ll probably get him a proof version when they come out in addition to what I get for myself 🙂

I like the design in the lower right with the raft in the front and the ship in the back. NICE
