Anyone who doesn’t think the Coast Guard can be every bit as badass as the other branches hasn’t seen THIS video.
Damn but these guys are NOT playin’ around.
It’s tricky enough to jump between two boats on the water when they’re stopped. But when they’re both involved in a high-speed chase … and the one you’re trying to land on is a mini-sub?
That’s a whole other level of awesome.
It caught the attention and praise of the President himself.
Do you believe this kind of bravery? Amazing drug seizure. WATCH! https://t.co/M1KKBFic4A

Here’s the footage he’s talking about:
When these guys say ‘stop’ they aren’t saying ‘please’.
Dramatic video released by the U.S. Coast Guard shows an interdiction team at sea, shouting in Spanish while forcibly boarding a “homemade” submarine alleged to be carrying thousands of pounds of drugs. In the video from June 18, members of the team are seen pounding on the hatch until one of the suspected smugglers emerges with his hands up. According to the Coast Guard, the vessel was seized by crew from the Coast Guard Cutter Munro.
The drugs seized during the dramatic boarding are among the estimated $569 million in drugs seized from the Pacific that were offloaded Thursday in San Diego, according to Coast Guard officials. In total, the Coast Guard seized 39 tons of cocaine and nearly 1,000 pounds of marijuana from drug smuggling vessels in the Eastern Pacific between May and July of this year.
Vice President Mike Pence attended the offloading of the drugs Thursday. In a speech, Pence praised the Coast Guard’s work, saying, “Make no mistake about it, Coasties, your courageous service is saving American lives.”

The drugs that are brought across our border bring billions in healthcare expenses, crime & the loss of thousands of Americans lives. The challenges & threats the @USCG face underscore why President @realDonaldTrump & our administration are determined to SECURE our border!

In a speech aboard the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Munro ported at Naval Air Station North Island, he told members of the Coast Guard that their work was pivotal to saving American lives and promised that President Donald Trump’s administration will continue to fight to expand their resources.
“Our Coast Guard deserves better, that’s why we are fully committed to funding our Coast Guard and to replacing old ships with new ones just like the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Munro,” Pence said, adding that the president’s recent budget committed $12 billion to support the Coast Guard. “Get ready, more help is on the way.”
