The Women’s History Month 2016 theme is Honoring Women in Public Service and Government. BM3 Crosley spoke about the history of women in the Coast Guard and various opportunities the Coast Guard provides women today. Women were first officially assigned as lighthouse keepers as early as the mid-19th centu- ry. In 1881, female Lime Rock lighthouse keeper Ida Lewis was awarded the rare and pres- tigious Gold Lifesaving medal for her heroics. Surprisingly, women were not fully integrated into active- PHOTO BY DEBORAH HELDT CORDONE DAR Oregon Dunes Chapter president Erica Lerch (left) and Coast Guard BM3 Brooke Crosley duty status until 1973, by act of Congress. The ongoing history reveals exceptionally strong role models, giving today’s Coast Guard women inspira- tion and a vision of what they can — and do — accomplish. Currently, there are five active-duty women assigned to Station Siuslaw River in vari- ous roles, with additional female members in the local Coast Guard Flotilla. For more information, visit U.S. Coast Guard Station Siuslaw River at www.uscg. mil. Daughters of the American Revolution has an extensive history as well, celebrating 125 years since its founding. It is a nonprofit organization that pro- motes historic preservation, education and patriotism. Members are directly descended from patriots involved in the Revolutionary War. The local DAR chapter par- ticipates in community events, offers scholarships and sup- ports local active-duty military and veterans.
