The Auxiliarist

By Auxiliarist Jeremy Davis

I am an Auxiliarist,

I am a proud Guardian of our Nation's waterways.

I am an Auxiliarist,

I am a dedicated servant of the American people in the classroom, in the air,

and on the water,

I am an Auxiliarist,

I choose to serve, without pay, to the fullest extent of my skills and abilities.

I am an Auxiliarist,

I work late hours and early mornings, away from my friends and family as we

endeavor to make our country safer.

I am an Auxiliarist,

I take time away from my career to travel across town or country to train and

perform my duties,

I am an Auxiliarist,

I wear my uniform with pride alongside my active duty "Gold Side" brothers and

sisters.

I am a volunteer.

I am Semper Paratus.

I am a United States Coast Guard Auxiliarist.
