5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent memoir by a World War II Navy Hero and X-Coastie, November 12, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Hooligan Navy: A True Story About the Old Coast Guard (Paperback)
A true and exciting account of life in the Coast Guard after World War II. Wesley Hall is an excellent writer and keeps his reader on the edge of his/her seat. Dr. Hall not only fought valiantly in the South Pacific during World War II but also served a hitch in the Coast Guard. Great Writing! A must read if you are interested in the military.

This is crap, March 10, 2011
This review is from: The Hooligan Navy: A True Story About the Old Coast Guard (Paperback)
First of all, the cover photo is of the CGC Taney in '73 - '74. Hall was long gone by then. In addition he's supposed to be a radioman and doesn't even know the ship's call sign is NRDT. Give me a break. Don't waste your time.

This is NOT a Coast Guard Story! It is an ignorant thugs story - a jerk that relied on his fists and arrogance - not surprised he was deep sixed!
