The coast guard is a branch of the military. Most small boat operations in armed conflicts are driven by a coastie . Most of the landing craft driven onto the beaches of normandy where skippered by the coast guard. They are armed and even go on special ops missions with teams like the seals. They also board drug running boats and shot 50cal machine guns . A far cry from lifeguards

When do solders become veterans?
The dictionary has several definitions for "Veteran" from (1) an old soldier of long service to (2) a former member of the armed forces. My opinion is a Veteran is a former soldiers who was in combat or in times of war. Of course many people who serve in the military do not to to war or even support the combat troops such as supply. Many soldiers served the country during peace time. They are considered veterans and have right to all the benefits the government provides, such as medical care and college GI Bill. When? I guess the day the soldier is honorably discharged from service.
