When your day goes sideways..
NMLB school students learn to navigate surf zones while using one engine. Students learn what the ocean is capable of, along with how capable the 47-foot Motor Lifeboat is under these conditions.

For 229 years, our shield has been worn but never tarnished. Our flag tattered but always respected. Our spirits tried & forever true. Our exploits legendary, tamped only by humility. Our Values strong & never compromised. Our promise to America never broken. We are the @USCG.

This month’s @USCG Cutter Munro bust wasn’t just a one-time incident captured on video. Check out the cocaine seizure ⬇️ by the Cutter Stratton crew that happened this week in 2015. Thanks to the brave men and women who have the watch every day! #SemperParatus #KnowYourMil
#OTD in 2015, @USCG Cutter STRATTON stopped a semi-submersible with 16k+ lbs. of cocaine. I was Pacific Area commander at the time, but this video never gets old. After an SPSS bust last month, it’s a reminder of the important work we do every day. bit.ly/2M0QNXO

When the Allied Forces landed on Normandy Beach, the Coast Guard took part in the greatest amphibious operation the world had ever seen. On June 6, 1944, the Coast Guard joined the other U.S. services and Allied Forces in the operation code-named Overlord. ow.ly/1ZNV50uxxY2
