ROA meet with the soon-to-be US Coast Guard Director of Reserve and Leadership, Rear Admiral Sandra Stosz, last Tuesday. ROA Executive Director, MGen. David Bockel USA, and Naval Services Director CAPT Marshall Hanson, USNR met at the ROA Minute Man Building with RDML Stosz for over an hour. Changes in the Coast Guard Reserve and its missions were discussed along with how ROA could support the USCGR.
RDML Stosz will be relieving RADM Daniel May next Wednesday, April 28. RDM Stosz will be completing her tour as the Director of Coast Guard Enterprise Strategic Management & Doctrine. Her discussion with ROA reflected strategic vision for the Coast Guard Reserve.
