Finally, our story gets told,
By Christopher Wood "Vietnam Veteran" (Stafford Springs, Connecticut United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Coast Guard at War (DVD)
Kudos to Tam and Sue Fraser of the Coast Guard Channel for producing this little known story about the Coast Guard's involvment in the Vietnam War. Any viewer will be amazed to learn not only was the Coast Guard requested by the Navy in 1965, the Coast Guard was needed to fill missions with the Army and Air Force as well. This DVD will keep you on the edge of your seat as the actual Coast Guard combat veterans who were there tell their stories of courage and valor against the backdrop of actual footage from Americas longest war. The Coast Guard motto "Semper Paratus" (Always Ready) will be confirmed over and over again as each mission is described in detail. Only 8,000 Coasties served in Vietnam over the course of the war but they proved that the smallest branch of our military stands ready to answer the call as they have done since 1790. I know all this to be true as I am one of those Coasties who were there. Now that our story has finally been told I hope that I never have to hear this question again when I tell someone that I am a Coast Guard Vietnam Veteran, "What was the Coast Guard doing in Vietnam?"

I just ran across this and ordered it. It is about time "OUR" story was told. I served aboard the CGC Halfmoon that was one of the first five ships of the newly formed CG Squadron 3. We went on line on 3 June 1967. We were homeported in NYC ( CG Base Staten Island and then CG Base Governor's Island). Charlie S.

Was happy to see the complete review of the Coast Guard in Nam. Was there and served on the Point Banks 1966 - 1967. Great film, well done.
