These pages remember the Coastguardsmen who served aboard Coast Guard LORAN Station Hokkaido, Japan. Much of the information on these pages was collected from across the internet. We are particularly interested in photos of the station and the men who served. Semper Paratus - Ron Borison CDR, USCG (Ret)

Ltjg Ron Borison - Editor of this Blog! Circa 1977
Then LTJG Ron Borison - Commanding Officer of LORSTA Hokkaido - 1976 thru 1977. Yep - that's right it's me - yours truly. Notice the Japanese license plates on my car. They drive on the left side of the road in Japan. Photo compliments of Martin Swords. Thanks Martin!!
I was stationed at LORSTA Hokkaido straight out of TRACEN Alameda in July of 1981. CO was Alex Simonka. A few people that I fondly remember: Denny Waters, Mike Whitecotton, and Ken Dillard just to name a few.
