This is the only Coast Guard WW2 combat footage I have ever found. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uxv--QDN0ZY None of the great WW2 series I have seen ever had any CG footage. As A Coast Guard veteran It's great I found this. The WW2 Coast Guard had well over 100,000 men, and manned many landing craft and troop transports. Also many of our Cutters did convoy escort duty. Several were lost in action, including the first CGC Escanaba, the predecessor to the ship I served on in the late 1960's. Lewis Brackett
