As we bid farewell to the year 2023, I would like to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to each of you. Your dedication and service throughout the year have been nothing short of exemplary, reflecting the core values and commitment of the US Coast Guard.
The holiday season is a time for reflection, gratitude, and celebration. I am immensely thankful for your hard work and commitment, which have been crucial in our collective achievements and successes.
As we embrace the festive spirit, I want to wish each of you a joyous and peaceful holiday season. May these holidays bring you relaxation and happiness, surrounded by loved ones.
Please note that our office hours will be adjusted for the holiday season. We will be working holiday hours (8 am to 12 pm Eastern Time) until January 2nd, 2024. However, we will be closed entirely on Christmas Day, December 26th, and New Year’s Day. We will resume normal working hours on January 3rd, 2024. During this period, we will continue to monitor emails and text messages as per our standard practice.
Here's to a wonderful holiday season and a fantastic start to 2024! May this time be filled with joy, peace, and rejuvenation for you and your families.
