After spending time at Coast Guard boot camp, Senior Video Correspondent Graham Flanagan travelled to Miami to see how the Coast Guard combats drug smuggling and illegal immigration from the air and the sea.  In January, a Miami-based Coast Guard vessel was involved in the seizure of a boat carrying 132 pounds of cocaine. Earlier that month, a Miami-based Coast Guard airplane spotted a vessel carrying 35 migrants off the coast of Puerto Rico. Flanagan spent a day aboard the Coast Guard cutter Robert Yered, which patrols the Port of Miami and the surrounding region that includes the Florida Keys and the Bahamas. Flanagan experienced a ride-along on a high-speed, water-jet powered pursuit boat used to quickly engage vessels for boardings and routine inspections.  MORE MILITARY CONTENT: What It Takes To Survive Coast Guard Boot Camp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBtJet6kmZ0 What New Army Cadets Go Through On Their First Day At West Point https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojJupoAyT58 ------------------------------------------------------ #CoastGuard #Miami #BusinessInsider Business Insider tells you all you need to know about business, finance, tech, retail, and more.
