  • It pisses me off that you can not find one recruiter that has any information on this new rating. As a civilian law enforcement officer I've been interested in joining the coast guard for quite some time. But I never get solid information from recruiters or I get contradicting statements from one office to another. The coast guard should do a better job on recruiting talent into their ranks. They need a major overhaul on their recruiting websites along the lines of the other branches.

  • I want to!

  • @syscrash319 I agree however the CG has the smallest budget out of all armed services and they use old equipment currently it is necessary to upgrade that equipment before recruiting can come along in the budget...I do wish they were given more but I think not many people appreciate them till they need the CG to rescue them I'm not a expert of course just my opinion as a hopeful Guardsman

  • @syscrash319 I understand what you mean completely, I went to talk to a recruiter and I asked her about many different units that I was interested in and for all the questions she said the same thing "It depends where they send you." If I'm not able to choose the job I want to do in the coast guard maybe a different service would be better.

  • I hate the normal color vision requirements..it deprives so many people of their dream jobs when they can clearly distinguish color just not the damn dot test

  • If I join this rating can be part of a TACLET?

  • @SteamboatWilley absolutely true.

    an ME rate is basically a Police Chief. BMs and GMs usually do a lot of the Law Enforcement.

  • @syscrash319 It may seem kind of late, but there is a website. uscg.org that has a lot of information on anything Coast Guard. I learned alot about the ME rank from there.

  • There's lots of fast boats and guns in this video, but in maritime law enforcement, you're probably going to spend most of your life doing paperwork.

  • @sjerseyb856 oh alright thanks

  • @MonsterMotoxx They are really strict on weight standards, i seen someone get booted from the coast guard because he was too over weight and didnt seek any motivation to get into shape

  • @StevenSupernatural coast guard academy is for people who want to be officers. Rescue swimmer school is for if you want to be a rescue swimmer. So the ME rate will be entirely separate.
