We're drifting terribly from the original topic, but if you won't be out there much be sure to search for the Sponsor Family program both here and the USCGA.edu site.

Actually very relevant b/c it's all abut keeping DS supported and successful and able to make the best of it even when so far from home and family! (And mom reassured!) Thanks!!
