District 20

 I am a real estate agent and business owner. I own multiple businesses in New Hanover County and across North Carolina. I am a veteran of the U.S. Army and the  U.S. Coast Guard. Having served on the Coast Guard Cutter Diligence and Coast Guard Station Wrightsville  Beach, qualifying as a boat coxswain and  small boat engineer, and attending numerous Law Enforcement schools. l, and earning dozens of Awards, Medals, and Meritorious citations. While serving Station Wrightsville Beach during hurricane  Bertha & Fran, we Saved  10s of Thousands of dollars in property and rescued countless people from rising waters and danger. I remember seeing a sailboat floating upside-down by the  Wrightsville Beach Police department in the middle of the road.       

The Great Nor'easter of December 1992 was one of the epic storms of all time. While serving on the USCG, Diligence was a tremendous challenge for myself and the crew, braving 30-45ft Seas while saving numerous fishing vessels that patrol. At some locations along the northern New Jersey, New York City, and Long Island coasts, it produced record tides, exceeding those produced by the hurricanes of 1938, 1944, 1954, and 1960, and the tremendous historical extratropical storms, including the Halloween Nor'easter of 1991. At many other locations from northeastern Massachusetts to Maryland, it produced tides within one or two feet (ft) of record values.

I wanted to clarify that a previous comment about being on the 1991 "Perfect storm" Patrol was incorrect, but as you can see, December 1992 was just as bad, if not worse. The only reason there wasn't a movie about this storm is that the USCG saved just about all vessels & personal in distress that year!
