Guardianism of the Day

This week, the United States Coast Guard turns 218. To celebrate, we will be posting quotes from Master Chief Ben Randall (Kevin Costner’s character in The Guardian).

“There will come a time when you might have to decide who lives and dies out there. It’s a terrible responsibility but it’s one you will have to make as a rescue swimmer.

The bigger reality is, it’s also something you are going to have to live with as a human being.”
