The Coast Guard Act of 1915, which combined the U.S. Revenue Cutter and Lifesaving services and created the modern-day U.S. Coast Guard, is displayed at the National Archives Museum in Washington, D.C., on September 5, 2025. Coast Guard chaplains and ombudsmen gathered at Coast Guard HQ for the Chaplains Professional Summit (ChaPS) and National Ombudsman Training (NOT) from Sept. 3-5, 2025. CHaPs and NOT culminated in an oath ceremony held in the Rotunda for Freedom at the National Archives Museum. Museum archivists displayed prominent Coast Guard documents, such as acts creating the U.S. Revenue and Lifesaving services, as well as historic WWII and search and rescue logs.
