Simply wonderful! Thank you for your hard work and talent! 😚🍒
My cousin was in the air force. That put him within inches a being in the actual military
I do enjoy a good origin story
Thank you for such fascinating ideas! Your videos always inspire me! ✨🍓
F-ing space force ! Get rid of that s#@t !
I retired as a five stars Admiral of Geodesic Corps
Love finding the usgs markers when hiking
Coasties get the job done, rain or shine. My grandpa ran a supply boat ashore during Korea. My uncle tried to follow suit but punched out his CO in basic because the CO insulted my grandma lol.
So basically the Coast Guard but with a bunch of nerds?
I have a friend who flies for them. Pretty cool job! Eventually he will be flying hurricane hunters
"Space force" my ass
They did their job back in the day, now it’s time to shutdown something that is obsolete.
And still nothing for oldest armed forces the minute men or in other words the National Guard
The National Guard are first ones on battle ground and last too leave
The off brand coast guard?
Lol space force… Gay force
They had a long coast to do it to.
Of course, the Royal Navy had already surveyed all of the main ports and waterways, that is why so many of the small Islands, ports and waterways have English names on their headlands and "roads" , the Royal Navy made charts and named them.
I know of one on Dans rock just west of Frostburg MD!
The Coast Guard gets in more fire fights currently than any other service. Cartels! 🔥🇺🇸
Ugh, what is even the space force when we already had US Space Command?
lol the coast guard is NOT a branch of the military.
Why people keep saying it is a branch of the military lol
Don’t forget they although they are no longer around during WWII we had the Amphibious Marines (anyone who was one had their choice during a time of leave could wear a Marine or Navy uniform) and during Vietnam we had the Green Berets
If they’re on their own soil, can they legally be captured and executed as spys?
Thank you for the lesson.
To be fair most people have no idea how many vital military functions are performed by civilian agencies.
The biggest grift in US government. There is not a single job that cannot be done by a civilian or a contractor. I worked for them for 30+ years and the abuse of the federal system is nauseating. Their time has expired and the NOAA Corps should be abolished.
I want one of those maps on my wall!
Uniforms make everything more official. 😂
You always find the most interesting factoids.
So I guess he’s talking about the US Coast guard, even though he never actually said those words.
Technically the marines are actually part of the Navy
Wow no clue
Thanks for highlighting our smallest uniformed corps, now called the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration Corps. As a civilian member of NOAA, thank you.
Actually, they were the second "scientific" organization in the US government. The Patent Office was first.
Are you bragging or complaining??? Americans are so arrogant!!!
What does the space force even do
Interesting.
What’s the usphs?
My dad was skipper on a CGS vessel during surveys and construction of the Inland Waterway along the SE , 😢 US coast .
Awesome duty to uphold
USA: We need to cut spending and shut down necessary-but-not-as-necessary government departments so we can give ourselves a bigger paycheck
Also USA: Let’s create expensive Astronauts with guns
My dad was in the US geodetic survey after the Korean war. He shipped out everywhere, including Hawaii and Alaska and South Pacific Islands
Go Army 🪖!!! Thank you coast guard personnel for your service.
is that still active?
U.S. Armed Services is much much different than the U.S. Uniformed Services. Especially considering you may be captured during wartime!
I learned of 2 branches today.
USSF is a joke.
It’s interesting to note, when measuring the boundaries of any country; that the smaller the unit of measure used to measure the boundary, the greater the size of the country becomes, until it reaches infinity. 🙂
*See Mandelbrot
Didn’t the United States Survey of the Coast accidentally started a border war up in Michigan by drawing the US border up to Canada and building a fort on Canadian soil?
