- Petty Officer 3rd Class Adrien Cheval ensures that a Coast Guard (@U.S.CoastGuard) boat is ready for search-and-rescue and maritime law enforcement missions.
Cheval drills two days a month at Coast Guard Station Washington, D.C., so he is able to maintain his civilian career in computer science while following his passion for driving boats and protecting others.

I was a Reservest 1960- 1967 at USCG Sector Charleston,SC. Served on SAR 40 Foot Boats .
Awesome
Ok I have important question. I am thinking of joining the reserves as an officer through the direct entry education program. Please tell me something. How often are you home off duty and how often are you deployed to another state?
will be joining soon!
Is he a boatswain's mate?
Brian Ordonez He's an ME3.
Lillian Rieck Hi Brian, Lilian, to answer your question, I am a Boatswain's Mate (now a BM1). Lilian you are correct in that the ME rate is now performing the mission alongside BMs at the Small Boat Stations. So either rate is a great way to go!
Adrien Cheval E-4 to E-6 in two years? That's pretty impressive, unless the video is older than the upload date?
Lillian Rieck The video is actually from 2010. But yes, I did make E-6 in April of 2012. I am taking the service wide for BMC this coming October.
What's the Difference in the Coast Guard Reservist and the Auxiliary.

The auxiliary is all volunteer and doesnt do warfighting or Law Enforcement.
Navy reservist do paperwork all day.
