(Don't snicker ... there were 443 regattas in the last reported year. It maintains all the light stations and beacons for navigation and shoreline avia- ticn. When the neutrality patrol was set up in the fall of 1929, the Coast Guard got that order, too. It has its own Annapolis at New Lendon, Conn., where officers Are graduated after four-year courses. And it has trained for the U, 8. merchant marine something like 800 licensed and 4,000 unlicensed seamen in the last three years.. These are just its peacetime ex- ploits.
