Greetings,
I am an accomplished Fly Fisherman and bow hunter. I purchased a PCP for shooting fun.
In my professional life, I have retired from being a US East Coast Response Services Manager.
My background was eleven years active duty as a Boatswain mate with the Coast Guard. Trained at COTP Philadelphia earning the Marine Safety Officer designation. Then transferred to the CGC Cleat as XPO and then to Station Barnegat Light where he earned his heavy weather coxswain designation on the 44MLBs. I took a ten year break from service when he began his work with the NJDEP. In 1998 he re-enlisted to work with the Atlantic Strike Team located at Ft. Dix, NJ. As a Chief Petty Officer with the Atlantic Strike Team Reserves, he was a Response Member, FOSCR, and the Reserve Training Chief responsible for reserve technical readiness. In the fourteen years attached to the Strike Team, I had responded to numerous environmental emergencies such as the World Trade Center, Hurricane Katrina and Rita, Motiva Refinery explosion, Buzzard Bay oil spill, and the Deep Water Horizon Response where he was tasked as Controlled Burn Task Force Leader in the early stages of the Deep Water Response.

Welcome aboard CPO!
And yeah, I had the same question as Richard - it kinda sounded like you was describing two different people - or you simply transcribed your cool service resume but forgot to edit the point-of-view in a few areas.
