Yesterday, today and tomorrow the civilian work force has been, is, and will be a consistent and vital part of the Coast Guard organization.

Civilians often work behind scenes, away from the spotlight, but their presence can be felt on the cutters, smallboats and aircraft. Without them the cutters wouldn't sail, the aircraft wouldn't fly and the stations would fall into disrepair.
