It was great meeting with my friend @secwar at @dhsgov headquarters today.

He joined me in thanking our @uscg personnel for the work they do day in and day out to protect our homeland.

We also discussed the importance of collaboration between DHS and @DeptofWar as we fulfill @potus mandate to keep the American people safe and secure.

CALIFORNIA CAVE RESCUE.

8 people were rescued in Santa Cruz after they were trapped in a cave by rising tides.

Thank you to the Coast Guard heroes who responded and helped airlift some of these people to safety.

106 years of Chiefs leading from the front.

Today, we celebrate the birthday of the Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer: the leaders, mentors, and professionals who continue to anchor our service through courage, mentorship, and mastery of craft.

We’re also proud to release the manner of wear guidance for the Chief Petty Officer Cutlass, honoring the legacy carried by generations of Chiefs who protected our coast, enforced maritime law, and led from the front since the earliest days of our Service.

The anchors worn by Chiefs symbolize trust earned through service and leadership shown through example.

Happy 106th Birthday to all Coast Guard Chiefs. As the backbone of our Service, Coast Guard readiness depends on your leadership. We are proud to serve alongside you.

The call to serve is a call to action.

In the U.S. Coast Guard, that action is constant and varied. It’s saving lives in some of the world’s most perilous environments. It’s swiftly executing interdictions on the high seas, and meticulously facilitating commerce in our ports and waterways. It’s deploying advanced technology to defend our maritime approaches against any threat.

Every task, no matter how different, is a direct contribution to our life-saving work in service of the American people. The desire to “try everything” finds its purpose here, where endless possibilities unite under a single, unwavering commitment to the nation.

Today is the start of #NationalSafeBoatingWeek 🛟 🛥️

Accidents on the water can happen in an instant, leaving little time to grab a stowed life jacket.

Whether you’re on a fishing trip or enjoying a day on the water with family, wear it, check your safety gear, and always be prepared for the unexpected.

We’re wearing our life jackets to work today because wearing your life jacket works! 🦺🚣

Drowning was the reported cause of 83% of boating fatalities, 88% of those who drowned were not wearing life jackets. The best life jacket is one YOU will wear when you are on the water. When accidents occur, there is usually little time to grab stowed vests. Wearing one at all times reduces the risk of drowning.
Wear your life jacket to work day kicks off National Safe Boating Week which begins this weekend. Stay tuned for more boating safety tips so you can stay safe on the water this season.

Defending the homeland begins on the high seas. 🌊

Crews aboard Coast Guard Cutter Tahoma and an embarked helicopter successfully interdicted three suspected drug smuggling vessels simultaneously off the coast of Colombia this past Friday, preventing 6,085 pounds of cocaine worth nearly $45.8 million from reaching American shores.

This operation required precision aerial disabling fire to stop a non-compliant vessel after warning shots proved ineffective, resulting in the apprehension of nine suspected narco-terrorists. The vessels were later sunk as hazards to navigation. This complex, multi-asset mission relied on close coordination with SOUTHCOM and Joint Interagency Task Force South, underscoring the unwavering professionalism of Coast Guard personnel and their commitment to disrupting illicit networks to protect national security.

Always ready, the men and women of the Coast Guard remain on watch across our maritime borders and approaches, where defense of America begins.

HEROES IN ACTION.

After a plane crashed off the coast of Melbourne, Florida, the heroic men and women of the Coast Guard RESCUED all 11 people onboard.

Thank you to these heroes and all the Coast Guard personnel who work around the clock to protect our homeland.

More than just a month.

May is National #MilitaryAppreciationMonth, a time dedicated to recognizing the enduring legacy, bravery, and sacrifice of the U.S. Armed Forces. We take this time to remember those who came before us, and to celebrate the men and women who currently stand the watch.

Here at the @USCG, we are proud to be part of that joint force. Whether breaking ice in the polar regions, intercepting threats at sea, or conducting complex rescue missions, our members are driven by their life-saving missions.

This month, we honor the courage of every service member and the resilience of the military families who support them. Thank you for answering the call.
