The day be- gan with an early aids to navigation (ATON) patrol by one of our facil- ities with a crew of three and two trainees. After the patrol they moored at Postil Point Marina on Eglin Air Force Base (AFB) where they presented a water safety program to 108 students for the explo- sive ordinance school (EOD). About the same time the “Invasion on the Bayou” program kicked off 3-4 miles away at the Bluewater Bay Marina. A Coastie team entertained kids and their parents while a four man VE team conducted exams, previously scheduled as part of the in- vasion program activities. A third team of four or five people set up across the marina at the dry storage area with our educational trailer, videos running and conducted more vessel safety checks (VSCs). All in all one third of Flotilla 14 was involved. Bravo Zulu to all. Stan Smith, Flotilla Commander 081-01-04 Destin, Florida SALT SPRAY 4 Division 1 Message from the Bridge… Preventative Search and Rescue (PSAR) is Mission One for the 8th Coastal District. Save a Life, Save the Day! We accomplish this mission when we educate the public about boating safety. This education process is proven to re- duce SAR events and marine accident statistics. Division One is focused upon boating safety as mission one. All flotillas are tasked to create PSAR crews. There is room on deck for you, and we are seeking your help. Call your flotilla commander and become active. Preventative Search and Rescue (PSAR) is a different way to plan events (ramp days, education classes.) public education, vessel examiners, program visitors, publica- tions, member training and public affairs have generally worked independent of each other for years. An analogy could be a wide bird shot pattern. National Safe Boating Week is a vitally important event. Preventative Search and Rescue (PSAR) crews will offer maximized event planning and implementation. Market- ing and advertising plans will be developed with program visitors and vessel safety ex- aminers, advertising and publications all working as a unified crew to insure a strong boating safety education event for NSBW week. Come on aboard and help us maximize the work we do! Save a Life, Save the Day. T. J. T. J. Del Bello Sr., Vice Division 1 Commander Leadership, Initiative, Innovation. SALT SPRAY 5 Guess what lurks in our beaches… See how close to the people at the beach. SURPRISE… This was found on the beach at Laguna Beach, FL. (measuring 6 feet) SALT SPRAY 6 John Mount BC-IAO. It has been said that the International Affairs - Interpreter Corps is one of the best kept secrets in the USCG Auxiliary. It appears that is probably true because, at a time when most areas of the Auxiliary are being told to cut back on their activities due to a lack of funding, the Interpreter Corps remains active. Unfortunately however, there has been a cut back in our activities supporting the Africa Partnership Station due to seques- tration. The Interpreter Corps constantly receives requests from the U.S. Coast Guard for the use of interpreting ser- vices of members of the Interpreter Corps. Because of these requests, the Interpreter Corps needs to in- crease its interpreter assets by adding qualified Auxiliarists to its ranks. In this way, the CG Auxiliary acts as a force multiplier. Over the past 14 years since the formation of the Interpreter Corps, the active duty Coast Guard has gained confidence in our linguistic skills. In the future, we are expecting more diverse utilization from the Coast Guard, as well as other military services and government agencies, and it is very important that the Corps keeps up with the increasing demand for qualified interpreters. The major mission of the Interpreter Corps is to provide competent language interpretation services to the USCG, the Department of Defense, other military services and governmental agencies. At present the Inter- preter Corps has over 440 Auxiliary Interpreters qualified in 48 different languages. The Interpreter Corps arranges for the selection of qualified interpreters who, when under orders, are capa- ble of interpreting at such events as the TRADEWINDS exercise in the Caribbean and the North Pacific Coast Guard forum. At the latter event, we provide services in four Asian languages. We also arrange interpreters for visits of foreign dignitaries attending places such as USCG headquarters, or for visits of Tall Ships from different nations when in U.S. ports. The Interpreter Corps provides the USCG, the Department of Defense and the Auxiliary with the same high level of program and document translation capabilities. This allows the agencies to develop training materials or to translate Public Affairs notices and documents in those same 48 languages. A prime example of this was the management of the PA efforts surrounding Deepwater Horizon (the BP oil spill), in which we provided interpreters from locations all over the United States, to translate a SALT SPRAY 7 steady stream of PA notices for the USCG in 11 different languages. Almost 100 interpreters provided this service from the comfort of their own homes. At present, we have a shortage of Chinese, Russian, Japanese and Creole speakers and are especially inter- ested in recruiting Auxiliarists who are fluent in these languages. Auxiliary Interpreters are accepted on two competency levels. The first, a Level ”A” Interpreter, is someone who fluently reads, writes, speaks and understands a foreign language in addition to English and the second is a Level ”B” interpreter who speaks and understands a foreign language, in addition to English, but does not necessarily read or write the language. The Interpreter Corp only accepts applications from Auxiliarists with a Level ” A” competency and only ac- cepts Level “B” competency applications when there is a Level “A” as a primary competency. Members of the U.S. Coast Guard Interpreter Corps measure up to the highest quality standards and have already provided over 50,000 mission hours mainly in Coast Guard operational support. If you think you would be interested in joining this select group of members of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxilia- ry. Please get in touch with either John Mount BC-IAO Interpreter Corps at e-mail [email protected], or Dennis Marrero ADSO-OP-I Interpreter Corps, Eighth Coastal Region at e-mail [email protected] .

Those ships would receive a plaque that could be mounted on the bulkhead for all to see. A retroactive program to catch up with those cutters that had already been commissioned and were in service were not to be left out. The five cutters that received plaques represent two Silver Stars, two Navy Crosses and a Navy Marine Corp Medal.

Everybody, please have a seat. Class of 2015: Ahoy! Audience members. Ahoy! [Laughter] The President. There are now fewer days to go until the class of 2015 graduates than— never mind. [Laughter] There are now zero days until the class of 2015 graduates. Thank you, Admiral Zukunft, for your kind introduction and for your leadership of our coastguardsmen on all seven continents; Governor Malloy, Secretary Johnson, Ambassador, distinguished guests, faculty and staff, families and friends. And Admiral Stosz, as you prepare to conclude your time as Superintendent, thank you for your outstanding stewardship of this Academy. You made history as the first woman ever to lead one of our Nation's service academies. And I know you'll keep making history, because I was proud to nominate you for your third star and as the Coast Guard's next Deputy Commandant for Mission Support. It is wonderful to be with all of you here today on this beautiful day. Michelle sends her greetings as well. She is the proud sponsor of the Coast Guard cutter Stratton, which is tough to beat. But as Admiral Zukunft pointed out, both the Coast Guard and I were born on the same day. So I want you all to know, every birthday from now on, I will be thinking about the Coast Guard. [Laughter] Now, the Coast Guard may be the smallest of our services, but I have to say, you may also be the loudest.

  • Olivia Hooker Resolution
    RESOLUTION Celebrating the life of Coast Guard and civil rights pioneer Dr. Olivia Hooker, one of the first African American women to serve in the United States Coast Guard. WHEREAS, Olivia Juliette Hooker was born on February 12, 1915, in Muskogee, Oklahoma to Samuel Hooker and Anita Hooker. Dr. Hooker survived the Tulsa race riots of 1921 at the age of six by hiding under a table with her three siblings when Ku Klux Klan members ransacked her home. Dr. Hooker received her Bachelor of Arts in 1937 from The Ohio State University before becoming an elementary teacher; and WHEREAS, During World War II, Dr. Olivia Hooker tried to serve her nation by joining the United States Navy, but was turned down. Rather than accept her rejection, she instead turned to the United States Coast Guard, who welcomed her enrollment. In February of 1945, Dr. Hooker entered the Coast Guard and on March 9, 1945 began basic training as one of five African-American females to first enlist; WHEREAS, Ten years after receiving her Bachelor of Arts, in 1947, Dr. Hooker received her Masters from the Teachers College of Columbia University, and in 1961 she received her Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Rochester. In 1963, she joined Fordham University as a senior clinical lecturer where she would serve as an associate professor until 1985; and WHEREAS, Dr. Hooker died on November 21, 2018, at the age 103, of natural causes in her home in White Plains, New York; and WHEREAS, In an oral history recorded in 2015 for White Plains Public Library, Dr.

  • Olivia Hooker, 1915–2018 the Race Riot Survivor Who Bore Witness
    Olivia Hooker, 1915–2018 The race riot survivor who bore witness Olivia Hooker was 6 years old when a gang of torch-wielding white men smashed their way into her family’s home in Tulsa. It was May 31, 1921, and white mobs had gone on the rampage in the affluent African-American neighborhood of Greenwood after a black teen was falsely accused of attacking a white woman. Hooker hid under a dining table with her mother and three siblings as the men smashed their piano and stole their valuables. Outside, black people were shot dead in the street and homes and businesses were set ablaze. Forty blocks were destroyed and up to 300 African-Americans killed. “It took me a long time to get over my nightmares,” Hooker said. She would recover—and thrive. Hooker was the first black woman to serve in the Coast Guard, and later became a distinguished psychology professor. All the while, she remained an outspoken witness to one of the deadliest single episodes of racial violence in U.S. history, which she referred to simply as “The Catastrophe.” Hooker was born in Muskogee, Okla., and as a child moved to Greenwood—“known as the Black Wall Street”—where her father owned a clothing store, said The Washington Post. She was stunned by the eruption of violence in 1921. “The most shocking thing,” Hooker said, was seeing people “destroy your property because they didn’t want you to have those things.” Her parents soon left Tulsa, said The New York Times, and eventually settled in Ohio.
