I am guarenteed district (8) and is really hoping to get stationed in Texas. Are the odds very high for that to happen? I was also wanting a little information on some of the bases in district 8 if anyone has an information. Thanks, Tara Ship date is July 27th, 2010  |

http://www.uscg.mil/d8/ This will give you the list of units. As far as Texas goes, this link will give you all that D8 encompasses in picture format. D8 is a large district. http://www.uscg.mil/top/units/ |

JP,
That's not entirely accurate. She has a guaranteed D8. So, the detailer is going to put on a blind fold and throw a dart at D8. |

Well the Detailer had a very nice shot cause I got the station I wanted. I was quite shocked but a lot of my company got a station or cutter that they were hoping for. |

No dart throwing or any of that mess =) Although there is a dart board as a joke, you definitely got lucky! I'll pass along your thanks! |

I am also from Texas and would like to know the chances of being able to get into Texas after boot camp. Are my chances higher or lower? I would like to get on the air station Corpus Christi? How possible is this upon graduation from boot camp? |
