My name is Martin and I'm the guy behind SurviveCoastGuardBootCamp.com. I attended Coast Guard Basic Training in 2012 and although I loved the experience when it was all over, I have to say that there were some really tough points during the actual process itself. I prepared as much as I could from the information that was available to me at the time, but there were so many instances when I found myself saying "Man, I wish I had known this prior to shipping out!". Of course these surprises were intentional. The people who design the boot camp curriculum don't want you to know everything because knowledge equals confidence. If you have a recruit that shows up knowing everything, it's hard to break someone like that down and apply artificial stress on them.
This is where the Survival Guide was born!
In the trenches of Cape May. I told myself that when I got back, I would do a giant 'brain dump' of everything and put it together into an organized format to help future recruits - and I did exactly that.
Since that time, the Survival Guide has undergone 4 editions, with the latest release being 01 OCT 17. Whenever there are updates to the way things are being done at Cape May, I adjust those sections in the Survival Guide accordingly. The reality though is that the incredibly large majority of this stuff hasn't changed in forever. They do tweak things here and there from time to time, but the majority of it is steeped in military and nautical tradition that goes back a very long time. There is only so much they can adjust to try to win the information arms race that they've been faced with since the evolution of the internet. It is my goal to continue being the #1 information resource for USCG recruits outside of recruiters and official USCG personnel involved with the recruitment process. If you wish to read more about my story, you can do that on the about me page. If you want to check out what some of your future shipmates have said about the Coast Guard Boot Camp Survival Guide, you can do that here.
