We laugh and kid the Coast Guard about not being really part of the military, but realize how just important they are after hearing stories like this.

That guy in the bubble...utter and complete idiot....I have no idea what that guy thinks and don't really care. Making that attempt without support staff, sans gps and without survival gear - total stupidity....

PO1 George Medley - George no I didn't think that at all, just joking and I know you know that brother.
That genius that tried the "Around the World in 80 Days" trip is like the Peace Corps volunteers getting eaten by crocodiles while trying to feed them.

PO3 Shaun Taylor sorry took me so long to respond. I had to swim back to shore after I feel out and they did went to the vessel and did not look for me. I tell you I try to spread world peace and I get left out of the article and had to swim all the way home. Luckily I have rally point to feel at home.

My take is that the Coast Guard has a very important mission. A good friend of mine is a senior Coast Guard lawyer. He reminds me that the USCG is part of the Department of Homeland Security, but they still are considered one of the five armed services. Many people have been saved by the Coast Guard, and the Coast Guard has played an important role in the "war" on drugs coming to the US.

Sorry. He's crazy ... according to a supporter. A quote from the end of the article: "He has these outsized ambitions that he sets his mind to. He's a success above and beyond anyone's expectations. It's almost biblical. But you gotta be a little crazy to undertake such an endeavor, right?"

Bless his heart...
Why not rescue a man who (willingly) got into a bubble and started running (from nothing) on the open seas. If anyone needs rescuing, it's that guy lol.

But what if Neil Armstrong had never got in his giant inflatable bubble and ran to the moon?
