-- The Revenue Cutter Service was created by the U.S. Congress on August 4, 1790, when Congress authorized the construction of ten cutters. These ships were built to enforce U.S. tariff laws. The name Coast Guard was first used in 1915, through an act of the U.S. Congress signed into law by U.S. President Woodrow Wilson on January 28, 1915, merging the Revenue Cutter Service with the U.S. Life-Saving Service, and providing the nation with a single maritime service dedicated to saving life at sea and enforcing the nation's maritime laws.

Read: U.S. Coast Guard
-- The United States Coast Guard's motto is Semper Paratus, or Always Ready. Protecting the coasts of the United States, the branch utilizes various types of ships and aircraft to intercept enemy ships and rescue those in need of help. This title introduces readers to the Coast Guard, highlighting the training, ships, and aircraft required to execute dangerous missions, accompanied by engaging images. The combination of high-interest subject matter and light text is intended for students in grades 2 through 7.

About Catherine: I have been writing frugal tips since 1982, when I was a young divorced mom of two - for my baby product company, Born to Love. I am now mom to three sons, who are all grown up - and re-married to a wonderful man. We have rescued two little dogs, Denny and Dexter - and Bella, the cat.
