CDR Michael C. Husak ’84

"My experiences at the Academy reached past the blackboard to practical application in the U.S. Coast Guard. The door to future achievement was opened with my Academy experiences. The people I was surrounded by at the Academy brought me forward on life's tracklines further and faster ? a truth realized as I now tackle the Coast Guard's newest demands while in command of a Cutter during a time of war where threats confront the security of the United States."

CDR Michael C. Husak ’84 Commanding Officer USCGC Vigorous
