Happy Birthday to the U.S. Coast Guard! ⚓

Today we’re celebrating the incredible service and dedication of Coast Guard families by spotlighting one of our military dependents, and fellow student worker, Faith Bailey, and her father.

Faith is a junior at SFA majoring in Animal Science with a minor in Educational Interpreting!

Her father proudly served across the country,and around the world, including Missouri, Brownsville, Japan, California, Michigan, Alaska, Maine, Texas, Virginia, and North Carolina. As a Chief Boatswain’s Mate (GS-11), he found his greatest fulfillment in helping others and making a difference every day.

When asked about his favorite duty station, he chose Eastport, Maine, where he served as Executive Petty Officer before earning the rank of Chief. His proudest memory? Making Chief and helping people throughout his career.

Outside of the Coast Guard, he enjoys working around the family farm, woodworking, fixing things, and spending time building with his hands.

Thank you to Faith and her father for sharing their story, and thank you to all Coast Guardsmen, veterans, and military families for your service and sacrifice!

⚓ Happy 236th Birthday, U.S. Coast Guard!

🎖️ Meet Tim, a junior Mechanical Engineering student at SFA!
Tim served in the U.S. Army and was stationed at Fort Drum, New York . His favorite army memory was “watching the snow fall in Afghanistan while smoking a cigar, sitting in front of a howitzer. For some reason, that moment just stuck with me.”
Now back in school, Tim enjoys spending quality time outdoors with his family and dogs, and building things with his hands, a true engineer at heart.
Thank you, Tim, for your service and your story!

Meet Adam and Stephanie Page!
Adam served in the U.S. Army from 2002–2009 in Satellite Communications, with duty stations in Kentucky, Georgia, Maryland, and Mannheim, Germany. His favorite duty station was Mannheim, where he and Stephanie enjoyed traveling throughout Europe and built lifelong friendships.
Stephanie is currently pursuing her Master’s in Nutrition & Integrative Health at SFA. Together, they love traveling (49 states and counting!), spending time with their children, participating in community theater, and cheering on the Lumberjacks.
When asked about his favorite Army memory, Adam shared that one of the highlights of his service was the convoys across Iraq, along with returning home to see his family after deployments.
Thank you, Adam and Stephanie, for sharing your story with the VRC community! 💜
