In the spirit of accountability to the dedicated people who make up the Coast Guard Auxiliary membership and their responsibility for the public trust, the theme for N-Train 2006 is 'People First.'

"No other volunteer organization in the world attracts people with talent and dedication as does the US Coast Guard Auxiliary. Selfless service and devotion to duty characterize the average Auxiliarist. This dedication must be mirrored by Coast Guard and Auxiliary leadership. We must provide the training and tools needed for our evolving missions," COMO Gene Seibert said in his National Commodore's Direction.

To increase the commitment to the Auxiliarist and the public boater, the District Staff Officers for Communications (DSO-CM), Computer Services (DSO-CS), Public Affairs (DSO-PA), Publications (DSO-PB), Public Education (DSO-PE), Personnel Services (DSO-PS) and Marine Safety (DSO-MS) will attend the Coast Guard Auxiliary’s National Training Conference (N-TRAIN) in St. Louis, Missouri, Jan. 27 -29, 2006. Travel and logistics information will be provided to the selected DSOs through their district chain of leadership.

The meetings and training sessions throughout the week will focus on membership support services and internal and external communications that will enhance the members' knowledge and ability to participate in the missions of their choice.

The DSOs will be trained by Auxiliary National Staff and Coast Guard personnel and will bring techniques back to their districts for implementation.
