Just two months after graduating basic training in 1999, then Seaman Apprentice Sergio Cosby found himself aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Northland from Portsmouth, Va., involved in a two-ton drug bust. Fast forward almost 14 years, and Petty Officer 1st Class Cosby had the opportunity to pass his experiences on to the next generation of Coast Guardsmen. Cosby wrote a running, or double-time, cadence entitled “Turn It Up!,” which was selected as one of the Top 5 Coast Guard Cadences of 2013.
