Seaman Haley L. Cosh US Coast Guard Station Cape Disappointment

PO Box 460 Ilwaco, WA 98624 Dear Seaman Cosh: Congratulations on your Safety Award as Coast Guardsman of the Year by the Don R. Grable American Legion Post Number 48.

Your commendation by your Commanding Officer leaves no doubt why you were nominated to receive this award. Your quick thinking and take-charge attitude demonstrated the dedication that our Coast Guard shows when saving lives both on and off duty, and on and off the sea.
You have truly made a difference in the lives of those you assisted and have contributed to the safety of the citizens of Southwest Washington.
Thank you for your service and I wish you much success with your Coast Guard career.
