r/uscg is a subreddit with 36k members. The community frequently discusses coast guard, uscg, pt, o, and a, and they frequently recommend/review streaming services, boots, and burger, and the most common flair used is coastie question, noob question, enlisted :snoo_shrug:, alcoast, and coastie help.
A place where Coasties, current and former, freely and respectfully discuss various topics of interest. We also strive to help each other out by providing each other resources. Future Coasties or anyone interested in the Coast Guard are welcome as well! Just keep in mind that this is an un-official USCG Reddit page and is not a recruiting subreddit.
