Academy in New London, Connecticut, and for other 
purposes. 
Whereas the School of Instruction to the U.S. Revenue Cut-
ter Academy was established at Fort Trumbull in New 
London, Connecticut, in 1910, which later became known 
as the Coast Guard Academy after the consolidation of 
the Life Saving Service and the Revenue Cutter Service 
in 1915; 
Whereas the Coast Guard Academy moved to its present loca-
tion along the banks of the Thames River in 1932; 
Whereas in 1946, the former German Navy training vessel 
HORST WESSEL was acquired by the United States for 
use by the Coast Guard and renamed EAGLE, which 
today travels around the world each year; 
Whereas for 100 years, the Coast Guard Academy has called 
New London, Connecticut, home, where it has trained 
and shaped the leadership of the Coast Guard; 
Whereas today, the Coast Guard Academy is a highly com-
petitive educational institution that attracts driven, com-
mitted leaders who go on to serve our Nation in the 
many diverse roles played by our Coast Guard; 
Whereas the rigorous academic program of the Coast Guard 
Academy provides a holistic education that includes aca-
demics, physical fitness, character, and leadership, and 
that trains cadets in the multiple roles of the Coast 
Guard’s multimission responsibilities; 
Whereas the Coast Guard Academy is an integral part of the 
southeastern Connecticut community and its cadets par-
ticipate in many community service projects throughout 
the region, working with school systems and serving as 
mentors for children;

Whereas the Coast Guard Academy is a vital link to the mar-
itime legacy of Connecticut and our Nation, and an im-
portant part of our Nation’s defense; and 
Whereas in 2010, in honor of its 100th year in New London, 
Connecticut, the Coast Guard Academy will open its 
gates to the public for events highlighting this milestone, 
including concerts, art exhibits, an open house, and other 
events to allow Americans to learn more about this 
unique educational institution: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
