i noticed in the training that their legs are shaved, i know swimmers do that (the men) does the Coast Guard do the same?? or is that just something in the movie?

I dont think it would make that much difference.

sure it makes sense, like Olympic swimmers- but i was just wonderin, i know they wear wet suits but i saw that and i was jus curious.

Real swimmers might keep their legs shaved to ease putting on their wetsuits. Or maybe they just recruited a bunch of swimmers for the cast.
