Careers in the Coast Guard

Marketing specialist in Coast Guard Recruiting Command Zach Hupp believes that young people should examine career options in the Coast Guard. His experience has taken him on international adventures and into special public affairs training where he traveled as the official photographer for the Secretary of Homeland Security. He says there is a serious need for military recruits and points to the Coast Guard's focus on reaching out to women and minorities. The signing bonuses he talks about are impressive for positions from cook to law enforcement. You don't even have to be a strong swimmer to join. For young people who are looking for a direction and purpose, Zach says you can find @gocoastguard on social media. He'll get the message and would love to talk to you.Mentioned in this episode:WEHC 90.7 FM is the Voice of Southwest Virginia. Stay tuned, connected, informed and entertained.
