That's a lot of candles to blow out.

There's an incredibly odd commercial on AFN these days featuring CJCS GEN Dempsey at what appears to be a gala for the USCG birthday, singing a song Dean Martin/Frank Sinatra crooner-style in honor of the USCG. It has to be one of the weirdest things any of us has ever seen. We just sort of stared at it...

That was at a Coast Guard Foundation ball earlier in the year in DC. I agree it was odd. Took some guts.
