Robert, I remember all the numbers of all the 40′s and 41′s I ran the the 70′s as well.
You never forget them.

I never took for granted the CG coxswain experience I had running 40 footers from the Sandy Hook Station back in the late 60′s and early 70′s. However, It has faded as a memory after all these many years. It remains a source of pride to have been a part of such a proud tradition as that of a USGC coxswain. Thanks for the story..

I came across this story while looking through the U.S.C.G. website while vacationing in Fort Myers Florida. I just saw a small patrol boat cruising the shore. God bless all of you in the Coast Guard for keeping watch over us.
