I didn't even know the Coast Guard had an academy, but AFAIK it was given to a white woman..?? Don't really know how that one's going to be handled.

The first was left in the bag of a black cadet in mid-July on board the Coast Guard cutter Eagle, officials said. The cadet pulled out the noose at a crew meeting the next morning and told everyone that he was offended.

The second noose was found in early August on the floor of the office of a white female officer who had been conducting race relations training in response to the first incident.
