You'll get all kinds of opinions here. I say do it if thats your motivation. Do what you like. Ask your family if they'd like to pay your bills forever. Im sure they dont! Do what you like to do. Coast Guard is a good gig and looks great on a resume.... especially in your field.

My son in the USCG, and there is another MM member who in also USCG. I'm retired Navy and the USCG or Marines are the only services I put my son into. he loves the CG, the do law enforcement boardings, busts cubans, chases druggies. The CG guys have an idea of what they are doing when they get out of boot camp. If you want serve your country, and make a differance just do it. They get to do a lot of cool thinkg. just tale a small boat the crews are tighter, my son is on an 87 footer, has been four years, is an E-5 and has 5 rows ribbons and his cutter pin. Not bad.
