Non-musical history for today: 1915 – An act of Congress created the United States Coast Guard as a branch of the United States Armed Forces. Unlike its sibling, the US Marines, it isn't automatically under the command of the US Navy. During peacetime (or non-wartime), it is administered by the Department of Homeland Security (which is a BS department, by the way), but an act of Congress or direction of the President, the USCG can be the charge of the Navy or Department of Defense.
