#5 A presidential tweet is one thing. Only once it is a direct order will this thing change, and not just in the Coast Guard.

#8 Yep, but those in the service understand 1) Warning Order and 2) Commanders intent. WOs are just as often verbal as textual, particularly if you are in a fluid environment.
