No, it means the Navy will complain about 20 year old ships while the Coast Guard makes due with 60 year old cutters.

1. So I guess all Jr Officers get the chance to be SWO officers...whether they are from USNA orUSCGA??
2. Can someone please explain the Billets and how they are determined/offered.
I guess the other thing that should be mentioned is related to missions. While a time without war seems like a distant memory, it's good to remember that your primary Coast Guard missions, especially as a pilot, are the same in war time and peace. In the past the rallying cry was "we spend most of our time actually doing our job, not just training for it."
And a big downside to the Coast Guard is its budget. I think the Coast Guard brings some of this on itself. Instead of saying "we can do that…." it's constantly doing more with less….. well, eventually it will break. Yes, we can pretend that it's "honorable" but in reality, it's not a smart approach.
So does this mean that the Coast Guard graduate gets paid less than a graduate of another Academy??
Oh, and in the navy we have these things called SH 46, SH 53, SH 60, and V 22
Good luck.

No more 46's in the Navy (been gone for quite a while). As far as V-22's, I think the navy is going to use them to replace their c-2's, but I don't think that will start until 2018.
