Graduates are obligated to serve a minimum of five years on active duty. Most graduates are assigned to duty aboard Coast Guard cutters immediately after graduation, either as Deck Watch Officers (DWOs) or as Engineer Officers in Training (EOITs). Smaller numbers are assigned directly to flight training at <a href="/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Pensacola" title="Naval Air Station Pensacola">Naval Air Station Pensacola</a>, Florida or to shore duty at Coast Guard <a href="/wiki/United_States_Coast_Guard_Sectors" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Coast Guard Sectors">Sector</a>, District, or Area headquarters units.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

During this initial processing period, the new recruits are led by temporary company commanders. These temporary company commanders are tasked with teaching the new recruits how to march and preparing them to enter into their designated company. The temporary company commanders typically do not enforce any physical activity such as push ups or crunches. When the initial processing is complete, the new seaman recruits are introduced to their permanent company commanders who will remain with them until the end of training. There is typically a designated lead company commander and two support company commanders. The balance of the eight-week boot camp is spent in learning teamwork and developing physical skills.

In an ALCOAST message effective 1 December 2011 the Commandant, Admiral Papp, directed that the language of the <a href="/wiki/U.S._Coast_Guard#The_Guardian_Ethos" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Coast Guard">Guardian Ethos</a> be superseded by the <a href="/wiki/U.S._Coast_Guard#The_Coast_Guard_Ethos" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Coast Guard">Coast Guard Ethos</a> in an effort to use terminology that would help with the identity of personnel serving in the Coast Guard. The term <i>Coast Guardsman</i> is the correct form of address used in Title 14 USC and is the form that has been used historically.<sup id="cite_ref-ALCOAST_554/11_80-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ALCOAST_554/11-80"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>78<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-87"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-87">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"> <ul><li>Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard Reserve Force</li> <li>Command Master Chief Petty Officers for the Deputy Commandants</li> <li>Area Command Master Chief Petty Officers</li></ul> </span></li> <li id="cite_note-127"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-127">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">For example, the National Park Service operates various vessels with a green racing stripe, as seen at <a href="/wiki/Channel_Islands_National_Park#Vessels" title="Channel Islands National Park">Channel Islands National Park#Vessels</a> (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://fineartamerica.com/featured/national-park-service-research-diving-boat-sea-ranger-ii-jason-o-watson.html">image</a>) or at <a href="/wiki/Sleeping_Bear_Dunes" class="mw-redirect" title="Sleeping Bear Dunes">Sleeping Bear Dunes</a> (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.munsonboats.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Munson-Model-26-42-8.jpg">image</a>).
