U.S. Coast GuardSeaman E-3
Sep. 2009 - Sep. 2013Islamorada, FLMy time served in the military dealt many cards as to what my everyday job would be. Since my job was so broad I was skilled in many aspects. Those skills included being a proficient sharp shooter qualified on three different guns and actively listening for distress calls on nine different radio frequencies as a communications watch-stander. While working on vessels, I certified as a proficient crew member on three different boats. While on these boats, I performed both recreational and commercial safety boardingโs. I was also always on call for missions while on duty. Therefore, I conducted search and rescue as well as law enforcement missions regularly. Lastly, I became overqualified in my position and qualified as a boarding team member and a non-compliant vessel pursuit crewman.
