Capt. John Driscoll

摘要

I am the commander of U.S. Coast Guard Patrol Forces Southwest Asia, based in Bahrain, with six no-foot cutters assigned, working in support of the U.S. Fifth Fleet. My whole career - including my jobs afloat and ashore - has been preparing me for this assignment. My father was a 40-year career Marine who was attending radio operator school in San Diego when Pearl Harbor was attacked on Dec. 7,194.1, and landed at Tarawa, Saipan and Tinian during the war. When he retired, he served another 12 years as a contractor.
