The U.S. Coast Guard’s motto, “Semper Paratus,” means “always ready,” and there’s no better way to describe our Coast Guard heroes, who conduct more than 22,000 search and rescue missions each year!

Our Coasties have already had a busy summer. Over the Fourth of July weekend alone, they rescued 21 people in 1 hour in Tampa Bay, Florida. During one stormy Sunday in Louisiana, they saved 11 boaters in Lake Pontchartrain. They even rescued an injured German Shepherd who had tumbled 300 feet down a cliff and landed on an inaccessible beach in Oregon’s Ecola State Park.

As our service members conduct dangerous rescue missions and make immense sacrifices day in and day out to keep us all safe, it’s our patriotic duty to make sure they — and all our heroes in uniform — know how much we appreciate their service.

So please, as we celebrate the Coast Guard’s 233rd birthday today, will you add your name to help us collect 23,300 signatures via email and SMS thanking our courageous troops?

Our service members often feel forgotten and that their sacrifices aren’t understood. On this important day, we must show our deep gratitude and understanding of everything they do for us. Sign now to honor our Coast Guard troops and all the brave heroes who sacrifice so much to serve our great nation.

Thank you for honoring our heroes today and for all you do to support our military.
