    My brother served aboard the USS San Diego in some hairy situations and was telling us what he could. Our mom and I asked, What if you don’t know what to do?! He laughed and said, “Hope like hell the Coast Guard isn’t too far away!”
    The people in the Coast Guard are amazing!

      was radioman in a C130 at Barbers point Hawaii in 83 to 85. one time in 83 we went to search for an Air Force Para rescue guy who jumped out of a C141 to Rescue a Mane Pilot who Punched out during a refueling operation,, he caught fire and ejected along with his co pilot,,, he was still tumbling in his efection seat at 34000 feet when he saw his jet explode,,,,
      he was tumbling wildly in his ejection seat,, no oxygen,, probably drunk from lack of oxygen when he decided to stick his arms out to slow the rate of tumble of his ejection seat,,, the chute opened at 10 thousand feet .. its to prevent pilots who eject higher from getting sucked up into a thundercloud and being turned into a 300 pound hail ball

      LtCdr Fothergill ,, ex Kodiak pilot shut down 2 engines to give us an extra half hour on scene to searcn,, for the Air Force pararescueman that jumped to his death to help them,,
      we could not restart one engine or divert fuel to the good engine so we where going to ditch,, but,, for some miracle the jet stream died and we landed on fumes at Hilo

    When you look at their aircraft in the hangars or on the ramp, you'd think they were unused because they are spotless clean. Little do we know. Hats off to all the logistics specialists, maintainers, admin personnel and base support tech who keep this operation running without a hitch.

    My Dad was stationed in Kodiak around 1960, as a Gunner’s Mate Third Class, USCG. The stories he told were amazing, and the pride in his service with the CG was immense. My admiration for the dedication and service of America’s safety net is boundless. I’m very happy this show exists to share the stories of this incredibly valued and often-unsung group of American warriors. Thank you for your service.

    I was on a mission in 1969 dropping maps that had been filmed by side looking radar to the Coast Guard Cutter Northwind. It was developing leads in the ice to assist the tanker Manhattan that had been re enforced to withstand the ice. This was to test the feasibility of tanking oil from the north bank to the east coast. The mission resulted in the need for the pipeline. We flew out of Elizabeth City to Tule Greenland to Innuvick Canada, and an AirForce base. We landed in Point Barrow and spent a night in Resolute Bay 60 miles due east of the magnetic North Pole. We had on board a Canadian navigator to shoot the stars thru the top of the C-130. It was a 40 day deployment resulting in a blown prop being feathered as a run away prop due to low temps at reseolure bay during takeoff and had to stop in Tule and wait for a replacement prop from ECAS.

      I’m in the middle... ‘could I retrain and.....’ but not in Alaska. There are thousands of exceedingly dangerous places where winds half kill you WITHOUT freezing constantly. This is why I moved 600miles south. Places so cold that you can die walking home make life more complicated. And you end up permanently locked in this small town for half the year (because even the train got buried under an avalanche of snow).

      They ARE the military! They are just not heavily combat oriented like the navy. They also conduct law enforcement activity in American waters. Which is something the navy is not allowed to do.

    • @dianatodd2300
      @dianatodd2300 Před 8 měsíci +4

      They most certainly ARE military, and are one of the three maritime military forces of the United States and take place in all the big joint military practice activities.. They have fought in every war the US has been in and even have Medal of Honor recipient. During WWII, Korea, and Vietnam, coastguardsmen, due to their greater experience with small craft and waterways, manned most of the small boats and landing craft, as well as serving on bigger ships. (their own and Navy) Many, many coasties lost their lives in doing so. Because of this, the Coast Guard and the Marine Corps have always had a special relationship. Today, the Coast Guard and Marine Corps have the toughest boot camps of the military. They have even had Marine Drill Sergeants on Special detachment serve in the Coastguard boot camp at times. Why so tough? Remember, Coasties, are not just preparing for what may come, but what they will actually BE doing, lifesaving and law enforcement chief amongst their many responsibilities. Lives, theirs and others,,' depend on their ability to function under the toughest of conditions and stresses and it is mentally, emotionally, and physically demanding. By the way, did you know that the CG even has their own special ops team? Surprise, they do! Not many people know it, and they are a smaller team than their other service bretheren, and are not singled out for special attention in the media, but don't ever underestimate their skills, dedication, or military capabilities. Here are four good CG bootcamp links: czcams.com/video/jBtJet6kmZ0/video.html&pp=ygUVY29hc3QgZ3VhcmQgYm9vdCBjYW1w czcams.com/video/Xkjt2YAFqVo/video.html&pp=ygUVY29hc3QgZ3VhcmQgYm9vdCBjYW1w czcams.com/video/aYzTT6D5TQw/video.html&pp=ygUVY29hc3QgZ3VhcmQgYm9vdCBjYW1w czcams.com/video/IcHb5VFPvJo/video.html&pp=ygUVY29hc3QgZ3VhcmQgYm9vdCBjYW1w I hope this is helpful and interesting

    Huge difference between the officer/crew interactions now vs 30 years ago. In my day, the enlisted crew in back were treated like inferior scum and the officer pilots never even spoke with them unless necessary....certainly didn't interact like they were normal human beings. The only pilot I ever rode with who was a true team player like these guys was Laura Gauth (previously naval special ops). Apparently things are FAR better today than yesteryear.

An example in this video was the camera man helping bring the litter in the helo. great people. I may not be from the US, but I sure would trust them if I ran into an issue over ther. Thanks Guys

    They literally save lives on a daily basis, and they are proud to be given the opportunity to do so.
    On a separate note, that little baby was so adorable, and I can only imagine how proud of her parents she will be as she grows and understands their roles.

    Excellent program...shows just what risks are taken every day and night by the USCG that are based up there..from what I have seen on another youtube video...that air station covers the northernmost islands of Japan all up into the polar regions and a big chunk of the North Pacific and the Aleutian Islands.... that in itself is incredible..

    I was raised in Kodiak Back in the mid 60s to 1977 I liked Kodiak so much the people are very friendly My dad had his own shrimp boat I went out around the Island plenty of times The beauty of KODIAK IS FANTASTIC, God Kissed Kodiak twice when he made it . I lived out at Island lake the back side, Its still the prettiest place i have ever been,, GOOOOO Kodiak You lucky ducks . I mean bears lol.

    I spent some time growing up in Kodiak thanks to my Dad's Coast Guard career... That's the swimming pool they would take us kids swimming in during PE class back in elementary school. They would let us put the survival suits on and jump off the diving board, it was so much fun. It's pretty cool to see that after all these years away from "home." The red twisty slide is a new addition 😄
    God bless the USCG, and our fishermen and women too!

    The crab pot injury is a lot more serious than first thought. When the human brain is rattled that hard within the skull there can be a slow seepage of blood that accumulates to the point of death. Immediate medical help is necessary. I hope he survived his injury. God bless the brave men & women of the Coast Guard!

    That's gotta be the hardest part of a coast guard. Being called out on a search and rescue mission, and unable to find the guy, knowing he probably heard, or even glimpsed the plane in the distance, and you just couldn't find him.

    Training is everything! Over and over until it is muscle memory. And retraining every year.
    As a flight attendant for nearly 20 yrs, I had quite a few medical emergencies. Your training just kicks in and you know what to do. The one and only time we evacuated a plane, the same thing. Muscle memory just kicks in and we had them all off, in 45 seconds.
    All fine, except for two sprained ankles. Training, testing, and more training. And these guys have such better medical knowledge then we did. Just so impressed! Wow!

    You know, they're talking about only 350 people there in Sitka. When I was in the USCG back in the '70s we only had about 50,000 nationwide, and that was both the East and West coasts, the Great Lakes, the Gulf of Mexico, Alaska, Hawaii, and all the rivers including the Mississippi. We were spread pretty thin. But the most people I ever served with was a 165 foot cutter where we had about 90 crew. I think the ice breakers are about 400 feet long with about 350 crew. But we did a lot with the people we had. We were always busy.

    I'm not demeaning the fantastic and amazing job these people do, nor am I so naive about the remote and inhospitable place's these hero's operate in in, but that particular distance is less from Brisbane to Perth. The difference is one is a freezer and one is an oven.
    I don't think most people around the globe actually know how big Australia is.
    It just made me giggle when I heard a flight crew member say "that's a doggone long way."

    The Healy is a pretty impressive ship. She's the largest and most technologically advanced icebreaker the US has and is the Coast Guard's largest vessel, though Mr. Deal is incorrect in claiming she's the only icebreaker the Coast Guard has. They also have the USCGC Polar Star, which is actually considered a heavy icebreaker despite being smaller and lighter than the Healy since she is designed to be able to break 21 foot thick ice by backing and ramming and move through 6 foot thick ice at 3 knots whereas the Healy can break 10 foot thick ice with backing and ramming and move through 4.5 thick ice at 3 knots. Polar Star is the only vessel capable of breaking the ice that blocks the path to McMurdo Research Station. There's even a third ship, the USCGC Polar Sea, that is of the same class as the Polar Star but she is currently in limbo after five of her six engines broke down and Congress is dragging its feet on what to do with her since from 2017-2020 they were clearly more concerned with trashing the President and are now currently too busy trying to destroy the country.
