Daniel Webster actually said...

"To the Coasties who joined us here today and across the world, thank you all for your unconditional service to our nation."

"At the same time, we are here to examine what investments must be made into the Coast Guard's most valuable resource: its people."

"Today, our subcommittee meets to highlight the extraordinary successes of the men and women of the Coast Guard."

"This is my warning to the Coast Guard: Please start saving yourselves from your own sinking ship."
