MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR
U.S. COAST GUARD RETIREE INFORMATION
A MESSAGE FROM
THE DIRECTOR
IT IS MY PLEASURE TO INTRODUCE CAPT MONIQUE ROEBUCK AS THE NEW CHIEF,
OFFICE OF MILITARY PERSONNEL POLICY (CG133). CAPT Roebuck’s wealth of experience
and proven leadership will be invaluable in our continued development and oversight of
personnel policy, supporting the mission of the Assistant Commandant for Human Resources
(CG-1) to “meet the people needs of the Coast Guard and the needs of Coast Guard people.”
I also want to extend my appreciation and congratulations to RADM Jeff Hathaway, USCG (Ret.)
and MCPO Lloyd Pierce, USCG (Ret.), for stepping up to serve for an additional year as the CG
National Retiree Council (CGNRC) Co-Chairs. The COVID-19 pandemic has made it particularly
challenging for the CGNRC to carry out its important work, and their continued leadership will
be of enormous benefit to the CG and our retiree community. As Director of the CG Retiree
Services Program and the Commandant’s Executive Agent for the CGNRC, I look forward to
hosting the Council’s annual in-person meeting at CG Headquarters in September 2022.
Finally, I invite all retirees to join me in thanking ADM Karl Schultz for his leadership as
Commandant and welcome ADM Linda Fagan as the Coast Guard’s 27th Commandant. We
look forward to where ADM Fagan’s exceptional leadership will take us.
Stay safe and enjoy the summer!
Yours in Service,
CAPT Anthony “Tony” Williams
Acting Director of Military Personnel
