Roberta, thank-you for your comment. I will gladly notify the Director of the Coast Guard Art Program and ask her get in touch with you about the water color painting.

Have a safe and healthy holiday and New Year.

Warm Regards,
Lieutenant Connie Braesch

My father ,Sr. Chief Machinist mate, Donald M. Gundersen recently passed away. He served in the USCG from 1950 thru 1974. He served several tours on the Northwind. I have a water color of the Northwind in Artic Ice that was painted for him by USCG W.E. Knight. I would like to contact him about the picture and eiter return it to him or donate it to the USCG Museum. Sincerely, Roberta M. McCrary

Watched using both the uscg.mil and AUX sites (AUX site on Work Station and uscg.mil on stand-alone MAC.) Sound quality was acceptable from both sites – although uscg.mil was better than the AUX. Video quality from both (even when projecting the uscg.mil site onto a 42″ flat screen) was grainy. But, we could see what was going on and appreciated the ability to have live connectivity for this event.

I was unable to view at all – streaming video was blocked completely on my CG Workstation.

The quality of the webcast, viewed from my desk at CGHQ, was very good. There were a few quality issues at the beginning (flickering images, dropouts and disconnects) but most of the broadcast had excellent sound and pictures. As a “test” I think the webcast was successful.

1) iphone is useless because it’s blocked.

2) The other two are slow, but the video quality was a little better on uscg.mil.

3) uscg.mil is a little slow in loading up, and had video quality problems at first, but eventually smoothed-out to an acceptable quality.

I’m viewing the iphone website through my iphone 3G. The video on the site does not play on my iphone. I’m n ot sure if this is intentional or not.

The iphone uses H.264 video format only. It will not play flash or any other format unless it is H.264.
