New On The Blinking Line Journal: Sunday Ride, April 26th, 2015

Sunday Ride, April 26th, 2015

Nice weather means nice rides and yesterday was beautiful. Our ride took us down and around the Bronson Parkway, then a quick circle through Hill N’Brook, at which point Chopper Brad noticed that there was some trouble with his exhaust, so we headed back to the shop, then rode to get some beer and pizza at Old Dog Tavern.

New On The Blinking Line Journal: “They Put Us Here and We Intend to Stay”

U.S. Marines on Guam salute the U.S. Coast Guard on Coast Guard Day

The U.S. Marines salute the U.S. Coast Guard after the fury of battle had subsided and the Japanese on Guam had been defeated. “They (the Coast Guard) Put Us Here and We Intend to Stay” is the way the Marines felt about it., ca. 08/1944

The precursor to the Coast Guard, the United States Revenue Cutter Service, was established under the Department of Treasury by Alexander Hamilton on August 4, 1790, now commemorated as Coast Guard Day.
