The Coast Guard Combat Veterans Association is a Non-Profit Corporation of Active-Duty, Retired, Reserve, and Honorably Discharged Former Members of the United States Coast Guard who served in or provided direct support to combat situations recognized by an appropriate military award while serving as a member of the United States Coast Guard. Volume 31, Number 1 Spring 2016 Association Continues FRC Plaque Program Presentations Made Recently to Fast Response Cutters Yered, Clark, Evans, Trump and David, Jr. Since CGCVA National President Michael Placencia presented the Association’s first commissioning plaque to the CGC Heriberto Hernandez in Puerto Rico in October 2015, it was decided that this would be an outstanding program for all new Coast Guard cutters named after USCG combat veterans. 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. On Feb 24th and March 2nd, our Association awarded CGCVA VP Steve Petersen presents an Association plaque to Lt.Cdr. Brian Finn, commanding officer of CGC Charles David.

    Administration of Barack Obama, 2015 Commencement Address at the United States Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut May 20, 2015 The President. Thank you very much. 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.

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.
