Memory Of Ruth Brace (12-10-45 to 08-18-12)
The best Mom anyone could ever hope for. She loved all of you
like family and loved what you all do so much that she made it
her life's legacy. Although we miss her more than anything, her
memory and her love of the Coast Guard, Navy, Marines, Air
Force, Army, all Guard and Law Enforcement has been passed on to
all who worked with her. We do our best to serve you and
appreciate your support for all these years.
For all who
work and deal with our family owned and operated business, you
know we are dedicated to service, quality and excellence in our
business of signs, brow dodgers, logos, lettering and other
custom services. We have come to be recognized as the one-stop
source for the Coast Guard.
Brace Enterprises,
Inc. is
still a small, woman owned business and a GSA listed small purchase supplier.
Our business has grown from years of experience
and a touch of class which
echoes our name throughout the chains of command within the Coast
Guard. We started working with the Coast Guard just before 1990 listening to your problems, requests, hardships, and
success stories and have learned and built on them..
Our business has
been customized to serve the needs of the COAST GUARD and we
work with some other government units as well as the ship
builders and yards. We strive to find solutions to many
problems experienced in the past, and with your continued
feedback and suggestions, we can only make things even better.
Since the Coast Guard is our primary customer, our practices
have been geared toward streamlining your PR paperwork. Most orders are shipped the same
day or next business day, with the exception of heavy quarter
and fiscal year end purchases. Additional charges may apply on
orders shipped to Alaska and Hawaii and we do service
International orders on a per order basis. We offer
shipping upgrades on rush items for UPS (primary) and FedEx air
service and Overnight
Air also for an additional cost.
We supply premium
quality materials Made in the USA, such as high-performance 2-mil cast
vinyl's, and 3M materials far superior to "government-grades" that were
stored, stockpiled, and often outdated from warehouse storage
only a few years ago.
There are some
suppliers providing vessels with incorrect products. Your blueprints and Commandant required specifications are what our
products are designed from, and we will only supply consistent
and proven materials design from these. We are right down to the book with our
fonts, typefaces and colors, and we provide some of the shipyards
with all of the standard items supplied on the ships right from
manufacture. Some other factories use other sources. These
sources know nothing of these specifications, and just cut out
letters and stick them on. When this happens, the items we
provide to replace them with will not match the previously
supplied items from those sources.
We supply you with
instructional guidelines, upon request, and materials to help install your
lettering - at no extra cost. These instructional sheets can be
sent to you, downloaded or printed right here online. Just
follow the navigation bar on the right under
Installation. I have created the
instructions to aide you with the installation of our products
to make your job easier and the lettering application struggle
free.
We have expanded our
business with you throughout the years to better suit your ever
growing needs. We make call sign boards and all ribbon boards
which are awarded to your vessels, logos to
decorate your flag boxes and Brow Dodgers; station and
trailblazer signs for your unit. We specialize in superstructure
lettering, legends, stickers and panels you require such as
"Ammunition Far Side", "Pyrotechnics",
"Battledress Arrows", "Fire Station Panels",
Photo Luminescent rolls & panels, compartment ID panels
and vent lettering and much more. Our NAVSEA decal
selection is quite large now, so anything you need please be
sure to ask if you don't find it easily.
We appreciate your
trust and enjoy working with all of you. Please remember that we are doing our best to be
there for you when you need us - we know you are on the front
lines for us, so should you encounter any problems...we are here
to work with you and for you!
Thanks
to you, we feel like we are a part of the Coastie family!

Memory of Ruth Brace |
