CHANGE OF COMMAND

It has been my great pleasure to have served as Commanding Officer, Coast Guard Institute. My thanks to the staff here and to all of you. I know there were a lot of changes. Thanks for all the support in making it happen. It was a great motivator working for Coast Guard members. Oklahoma City is a great duty station and the facilities on the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center are outstanding. My relief is CDR Don Winfield. The Change of Command will happen on 11 August at 1500. Thank you all.

EDUCATION ADVISORY COUNCIL
