NEW ORLEANS -- (center) Capt. John Korn, the Eight Coast Guard District chief of staff, participates in the filming of a safe boating public service announcement video with the help from a group of New Orleans’ Saintsations here Thursday, May 9, 2008. Each year the Coast Guard, along with the Coast Guard Auxiliary and local supporters, participate in a nationwide safe boating campaign to help ensure a safe and fun boating season. Before boating, the Coast Guard urges all mariners to file a float plan, carry emergency signaling devices and always wear your lifejacket. “Be a survivor-wear it!” (U.S. Coast Guard photograph by Petty Officer 2nd Class Thomas M.
