Today at graduation, Admiral Allen awarded the academy a Coast Guard unit commendation for January 2007 to January 2010.
The Coast Guard Unit Commendation is the highest peacetime unit award that may be awarded to military commands of the United States Coast Guard. The decoration was first created in 1963 and is presented to members of any Coast Guard unit that distinguishes itself by valorous or extremely meritorious service, not involving combat, but in support of Coast Guard operations.
The last time the academy received a unit commendation was in 1998.
