After four grueling years of training to become a Coast Guard officer, the Coast Guard Academy’s Class of 2017 will graduate on Wednesday. Fifteen Connecticut residents are among this year’s graduates, including a handful of local cadets.

The Day will be covering the Coast Guard Academy graduation. We'll have reporters on the campus to talk to families and to report on President Trump's keynote address. We'll also have reporters outside the campus to follow the various planned demonstrations and protests.
