What happens to cargo before makes its way into the country? 📦⚓️🌎

Recently, Marine Science Technicians from Coast Guard Sector Maryland - National Capital Region conducted a Multi-Agency Strike Force Operation (MASFO) with maritime partners to inspect cargo and help identify potential safety and security concerns in the Port of Baltimore.

From the waterfront to the cargo yard, Coast Guard crews work with the maritime community to help keep our waterways safe and our borders secure.

The markers that guide mariners don't maintain themselves! 🛟 ⚓️🚢

Aids to Navigation Team Baltimore works throughout the Chesapeake Bay and surrounding waterways to maintain the buoys and other aids to navigation that help mariners safely find their way.

From the dock to the water, ANT Baltimore keeps the waterways marked and moving. 💪

From demonstration to real-world mission readiness 💪⚓🇺🇸

Yesterday at Sail250 Maryland, Coast Guard crew members from Air Station Atlantic City showcased the skill, teamwork, and precision behind our search and rescue mission. Every hoist, every maneuver, and every response reflects the training that prepares us to answer the call—day or night, in any condition.

But our mission doesn’t stop there. While we’re always ready to save lives at sea, we’re also standing the watch to control, secure, and defend America’s ports, waterways, and maritime transportation system.

Whether responding to emergencies or protecting our nation’s maritime security, we’re always ready.

🚁🚤 Semper Paratus. Always Ready.
