I am the father of KP midshipman.
DS is in the North Sea right now and asked me to ask y'all about life in the Coast Guard. Specifically, if he were to seek a commission in the USCG after graduation from KP, what is the relatively likelihood of him getting any say as to where he is assigned? If not, is there any rhyme or reason to the process? How often do Coast Guard officers typically move in their first five years? Those are just ideas, but anything y'all think would be relevant to a person considering the Coast Guard would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
