Honor your cooks



Captains,
We all know how important cooks are. I honored our Coast Guard culinary team Friday by attending the awards ceremony as they took 3rd out of a field of 35 military culinary teams in the "world series" of military culinary competitions at Ft Lee, VA. The CG team's high placing in the competition made a strong statement to the Army about the high quality of food service we enjoy in the sea services.
