Good Order and Discipline Data

The Good Order and Discipline Data (GOAD) and summary is a compilation of the disciplinary and administrative actions taken when Coast Guard military and civilian employees fail to uphold the high ethical, moral, and professional standards we share in the USCG.  While the military and civilian systems are separate with different procedures, rights, and purposes, the underlying core values remain the same.  Actions from both systems are included to inform the USCG community of administrative and criminal and enforcement actions. 

The following link consists of GOAD information for the last ten years.
