Its purpose is to promote the best
interests of the commissioned, en-
listed and civilian personnel, active
or retired, of the United States
Coast Guard and to give assistance
TO those of them and their families
who are in need of counsel and
help in the difficulties and vicissi-

The Coast Guard Welfare func-
tions with the Navy Relief Society
and with the American Red Cross.
If the locale is one which has
either Navy relief unit or a Red
Gross chapter and no Coast Guard
Welfare, the other two take over,
and in many cases where there is
no Navy relief nor Red Cross the
Coast Guard Welfare in turn takes
over for them.
Every year the Navy. Relief So
