Branch: United States Coast Guard (USCG)
Home: Washington

I enlisted in the Coast Guard six months after I graduated from high
school. I went to basic training in Cape May, NJ in January of 2001,
and my first duty station was the 378’ USCG Rush in Honolulu, HI. I
realized fairly quickly that I had made a mistake, and as impulsively
as I joined the Coast Guard I went AWOL. I am committed to making
sure that service members are treated fairly while in, that they get
the benefits they earned once they’re discharged, and that our
nation doesn’t send them off to fight immoral and illegal foreign wars and occupations like
the ones in Iraq and Afghanistan.

"rest of justification bull**** snipped"

So he graduated from basic around March of 2001, gets assigned to a cutter
in Honolulu and decides to go AWOL.
