Coast Guardsmen run 100 miles for a mental health mission

U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Clinton Loughner, an operational planner assigned to Coast Guard Atlantic Area, and Chief Petty Officer Stefan Phelps, a maritime enforcement specialist assigned to Maritime Security Response Team East, plan to run up to 100 miles to encourage Coast Guard active duty members, civilians, and dependents to sign up for mental health and suicide awareness training. Loughner and Phelps will run March 23-24, intending to go the length of the Outer Banks from Corolla to Hatteras, North Carolina. Coast Guard Atlantic Area Deputy Commander Rear Adm. Nathan Moore provides an interview for this product and champions the initiative.

Thank you!

That's nice. This organization does not care about mental health. They will simply kick you out with no discharge paperwork like a DD-214. Still fighting them in court for my discharge status after 17 years of faithful service...

Excellent

​@@U.S.CoastGuardSemper Shitus! This organization is horrific to anyone that's not inaugurated in the drinking club.
I got very high in this organization and was summarily executed for not being part of them...

I have a large question. I want to join the Coast Guard but I am to young to join so what should I work on and how hard is the training process after 4 years of college

[@ProGymReels]

They’ll pay for your college from what I’ve heard if you enlist or you can go to a community college and transfer and get your bachelors and go to officer school

@@ProGymReels thank you

Apply for the AIM summer program at the Coast Guard Academy & then apply for the Coast Guard Academy, if you enjoyed AIM. 🛟

Then why do y’all penalize people for going to therapy ??? Like meps is stopping people for the smallest stuff.

It's so nice to see our military personnel, care that much about the mental state of the current president. 😁😄😆😅😂🤣
