Testimonials

"The ombudsman is a tremendous force multiplier and a critical member of my command team. My ombudsman keeps the command grounded, and ensures that despite dynamic patrol schedules and high-tempo operations we never forget our commitment to the Coast Guard Family. My ombudsman has immeasurably contributed to the outstanding command climate we enjoy aboard EDISTO."

LT Philip Baxa
Commanding Officer
USCGC EDISTO (WPB 1313)
