Big difference between getting the clap from a cheap hooker in some slum waterfront bar and serving in real combat. Also shit for brains the Coast Guard is not a military service and license tramp freighter crewmen. Get back to us when you wear the uniform. Oh wait you were rejected never mind.
The USCG is indeed a military service. As a matter of fact the oldest in the country. Just pointing that out.

Nor should you argue, they don't like it, to bad for them.........
