The president connected the Coast Guard’s mission to his domestic and international priorities, particularly regarding Iran.
In his address, Trump urged the newly commissioned officers to focus on both homeland defense and what he described as America’s ‘national resurgence.’ This message came as the graduates prepared to enter military service in a complex and changing world environment.
