If I was looking to paint my house could I use non-rates? Also can I use the paint, rollers and brushes from the station? Their is so much paint down there I don't think that it will matter. You guys ever take anything from your stations/boats?

Negative bud.

Did you get hit on the head with a frying pan or something. That may rank up there with one of the dumbest questions asked here.

Are you serious. You are an E-6 and you are not sure if you can use station paint to paint your house. I wonder who signed your PQS to advance that high. I belive you need to go back and review some materials.

Maybe it's time to inventory the paint locker and properly dispose of some of it...

Never understood the BM need to have 5 years worth of paint on hand, enough to do all the boats and all the buildings, when all major boat painting was done in a boat yard, not at the station; and the station building painting was contracted out.

from your bio:
I went to Florida State recivied my masters in eduacation. Taught for 3 years then wanted a change, So I joined the Coast Guard. Been in since 2004.

guess they didnt teach common sense their

just ask them if they would like to help you paint

After looking in DA I found that there are no E-6's in the Coast Guard with the last name "Upchurch".
Call it what you want! Who ever this is, is obviously just trying to get a rise out of us.

Apparently this guy has been putting these crazy types of posts in the FS forum as well.

This ALWAYS gets a good turn out for work parties!

Says he was on CGC Mellon in 2004 till 2007...
I dont remember him being there. but then again, I left the Mellon in 2004.
Could ask former shipmates of mine if they know this guy.

This is a hoax, trust me people. But it's fun reading his stuff, lol.
