The Coast Guard Compass
Coast Guard announces new blog, The Coast Guard Compass, hosted at: HTTP://COASTGUARD.DODLIVE.MIL.
From their about us page: "The Coast Guard Compass is the official report of the U.S. Coast Guard on its people and missions. The United States Coast Guard is a military, multimission, maritime service within the Department of Homeland Security and one of the nation’s five armed services. The Coast Guard provides unique benefits to the nation because of its distinctive blend of military, humanitarian, and civilian law-enforcement capabilities. Its core roles are Maritime Safety, Maritime Security, Maritime Mobility, National Defense and the Protection of Natural Resources."
One recent article that you all might enjoy is "Guardian of the Week: The Coast Guard Families". I was humbled and honored to see that our very blog is listed in this particular blog post and that they have included us on their blogroll--thanks Coast Guard Compass! We really do appreciate that.

Unfortuantely this year we didn't include the coast guard. We plan to include coast guard and foreign national military and more next year, but we identified the categories that had at least 10 active bloggers. I also returned from a deployment and didn't have time to update the site with everything which put me behind on some things. I hope you understand and I hope to see you nect year. If you have a list of coast guard bloggers who are not listed in the database please send it to me and ill get them added.
Cheers
