Today, we celebrated the U.S. Coast Guard's 236th birthday! Since it was founded on August 4, 1790, the Coast Guard has ensured the safety, security, and stewardship of our nation’s waters.

Veterans at the Thomas H. Corey VA Medical Center enjoyed cake provided by the Center for Development and Civic Engagement and live music by a fellow Veteran playing the piano.

Thank you to all the brave Veterans and active duty Coast Guard who answered the call whenever and wherever duty demands. Semper Paratus!
