First off, my name is George. As of yesterday, I was going to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University on a $15,000 Air Force ROTC scholarship. Then, I got the big white envelope. I now need to choose between ERAU w/ AFROTC (and flight during college), or USCGA and hope i get a flight spot.
Anyway, my question. I'm president of my school's National Honor Society, and I am very big on community service (and emergency services in the Civil Air Patrol). A dream of mine has always been to travel to 3rd world countries to help fight hunger and keep peace between countries. Does the coast guard do anything like this, besides just natural disasters?
P.S. I am not even sure what to major in, but I like Government. I also plan to compete for a pilot slot after graduation.
Thanks.
George
