Yesterday at 1629, Sector Honolulu watchstanders received a distress call from the F/V MISS EMMA which was approximately 5 nautical miles south of Oahu and on fire. The command center staff dispatched a C-130 and MH-65 from USCG Air Station Barbers Point as well as several surface assets. After arriving on scene, the C-130 was able to vector in a Response Boat-Medium (RBM) from Small Boat Station Honolulu to the scene of the incident where the boat crew successfully pulled all 7 survivors from a liferaft and ferried them to shore. The USCGC JOSEPH GERCZAK remained on scene to ensure that the burning vessel did not become a hazard to local maritime traffic.

As we remember the events of September 11th, 2001 we reflect on the actions of The U.S. Coast Guard who led the largest water evacuation in history. The evacuation of more than 500,000 people from Manhattan following the Sept. 11th terror attacks on the World Trade Center towers shall never be forgotten.

The Fast Response Cutter is proving its worth. The crew of the @uscg Cutter ROBERT WARD returned to Los Angeles with over 2,800 pounds of co***ne seized in the Eastern Pacific, highlighting the effectiveness of these state of the art vessels. In all, the crew stopped more than 5,800 pounds of co***ne from reaching U.S. shores during their 50-day patrol. These efforts are vital to combatting dangerous drug cartels and saving American lives at home.
Welcome home, Shipmates! Congratulations on a successful deployment!
🗣K-9 Incoming! 🐕 🚁 🚨

Check out USCG K-9 Ruthie from Maritime Safety and Security Team New York conducting Vertical Delivery (V-DEL) training with @nypd Air Unit. The Coast Guard’s K-9 Vertical Delivery capability allows the teams to quickly deploy and respond to emergencies aboard a ship at sea or anywhere in their area of responsibility.
