Cheney to speak at Coast Guard Academy graduation

NEW LONDON, Conn. -- The Coast Guard Academy says Vice President Dick Cheney will speak at its commencement ceremony May 21.

Academy officials say the vice president is set to deliver the keynote address at 11 a.m. at the school's 127th commencement.

President Bush spoke at the academy's graduation last year, and portrayed the Iraq war as a battle between the U.S. and al-Qaida. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff addressed cadets at the 2006 graduation.
