Coast Guard Cutter Boutwell. Recent partol to Russia, Japan, and China. We busted six high-seas drift net vessels. 72 hour boardings at a time on a little boat in extremley bad weather. I love my job.

  • question to all USCG: do the 378 ft whecs have like a CIC similar to those seen in other navy ships?

  • I hate this song

  • @aeroaman uscg got new cutters and are being built, uscg's role is not only to be in small boats and airstations but they need bigger boats just in case they get attacked by a different nations navy boat. USCG Semper Paratus oorah

  • @MattDillon78247 - Word, shipmate.

  • @aeroaman - Hate to burst your bubble, but 'black hulls' are USCG cutters, too. And if you've never made a meaningful deployment (and I mean PCS) on a WHEC, you are perhaps not in the best position to throw out a value judgement like that. All missions are equally important.

  • Been there, done that - USCGC Rush (WHEC 723) - Bering Sea - Pre-FRAM (1976-1978). RM3. And aeroman - try doing fisheries patrols in the Bering Sea in January on a weenie little patrol boat or buoy tender. I did a tour at a small boat station (Port Aransas) and a bouy tender (CGC Salvia) - different missions - equally important.

  • USCG Cutters...old, slow, inefficient, and largely without purpose. Small boat stations, black hulls, and air stations make sense.

  • served on her as an mst in 1972-1973 boston and 1973-1974 seattle the panama canal experience i will never forget. great to see her continuing to serve our country well. great video thanks for sharing and thanks to all the coast guardsmen and coast guardswomen serving on her and around the globe. t.scanlon bradenton fla

  • The boats get taken back to China, and they literally cut the boats in half. China is onboard with us about fisheries protection and they're pretty serious about it.

  • You know it! Served on her from 05-08 sailed all over the pacific... tons of fun and good times!
