Serving America Honorably

Joe Collins.....one of 'ours'......son of our nautical friends, Melissa and Kurt....
Joe is in the Coast Guard and is now finishing up 'another school' in Virginia and will be graduating soon.
Watching Joe grow thru his teen-age years, his hard work and hard play, makes family members and friends.....very proud....of his success and accomplishments in the Coast Guard.
Joe's family has been boating....forever.....trips to the Bahamas by boat
from Florida's east coast area....was a regular event in the family summer vacation life.
I don't mean just ' nice inspiring and fun' trips....mechanical emergency's, towing other boats as needed, customs aggrivations and experiences, etc. were regular events.
His chosen vocation is just an extension of his Florida family lifestyle and needless to say, Joe is very competent in and around the water.... Thanks to Mom and Dad....those serving around Joe are blessed.
America's Best is found in the Coast Guard's own.....Joe Collins.
Joe....We salute you
