U.S. COAST GUARD

Source of Commission. The USCG relies on the U. S. Coast Guard Academy for much of its officer accessions. As shown in Table 7.8 it gets nearly three quarters (70 percent) of its new officers from the USCG Academy and from Officer Candidate School. This is compared to 40 percent for DoD officer accessions.
