Station Fire Island
A
small army of Auxiliarists descended on Station Fire Island to
augment the effortsof the USCG regulars and reservists. Lines denoting
gold and silver side all but evaporated and the only difference
became the small arms and bulletproof vests of the regulars. From
carrying out tasks ranging from station perimeter security patrols to
preparation of meals for all personnel, the members of Division 1 responded
to thecall to be part of Team Coast Guard and serve their country.
