| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Vince Patton, the eighth Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard and former chairman of the U.S. Naval Institute Editorial Board, recently reminisced on social media about joining the Delayed Entry Program in April 1972 and shipping off to boot camp later that year. In response, Coast Guard Chief Boatswain's Mate Chris Browning elegantly captured Vince's career: "You came in as a kid with a dream and you left as a man with a legacy." |
