[QUOTE="98 Saleen Cobra, post: 16388565, member: 52734"] 14yrs Active duty CG. Only family member directly related to me was my Uncle who did 4yrs in the AF during Desert Storm. Wasn't really a huge factor for me, but it helped. I had decent up bringing now that I'm older and wiser. But still had issues towards the end of high school at my house. I saw a rescue swimmer deploy out of a helicopter and a response boat save people under the Golden Gate Bridge in the 7th grade and that was it for me. I was like I want to do that when I grow up. 8th grade exhibition project was on the Coast Guard and I joined at 17.5 yrs old after graduating 6 months early to join. Been doing it ever since. I'll be putting my letter in at 20 yrs and at about 38 yrs old. I guess you could say that I fall into the category of the last 3 yrs of high school being absolutely miserable at my house, and my uncle serving. I also married my wife out of boot camp at 18.. (turned 18 while in boot camp). Been a good 14 yrs so far.. Little hiccups here and there but overall very happy with my current life and situation. The Coast Guard is turning in a good direction I feel like which is nice. Mission and People are the highest priority which is really nice to see. [/QUOTE]
