    Personal Narrative: My Experience As A Surface Warfare Officer

    It would be an honor and a privilege to continue my service as a Surface Warfare Officer. I had the pleasure of being assigned to the USS Chung-Hoon during my senior Midshipman cruise. While on the Chung-Hoon, I was tasked with assuming the role of conning officer. I was held to the same expectation as my running mate; I was to have in-depth knowledge of the ship’s navigational capabilities, report for duty fully prepared to assume responsibilities, and, at all times, be diligent when working in unison with the different departments of the ship in order to assure safe navigation. Working with the officers and crew on the Chung-Hoon was the greatest lesson in leadership I experienced, and serves as the point in my life where I knew I was destined to be a warfighter.

    Coast Guard Academy Application Essay

    I believe the Coast Guard Academy will provide me with an excellent education, an opportunity to compete in collegiate athletics, and the ability to serve my country. The CGA’s excellent science program and low student-to-faculty ratio will enable me to excel as a mechanical engineering major. Studying at the CGA will not only give me classroom knowledge of mechanical engineering, it will also give me hands-on, real world experience and practice. Throughout my four years at the CGA, I will have many opportunities to take what I learned in the classroom and apply it to a variety of situations. During my time at the CGA, I will also be able to engage in humanitarian projects, spend my summers on the sea applying the skills learned during the school year, and participate in various clubs and athletic teams. While at CGA, I will not only expand my academic knowledge, but will also further develop my leadership…
