  • Coast Guard Auxiliary .Pdf
    U.S. COAST GUARD AUXILIARY POLICY STATEMENT The U.S. Coast Guard is America’s maritime first responder and stands ready to protect the public from all threats and all hazards. All members of the Coast Guard forces play a critical role in every mission area – supporting maritime security, safety and stewardship. The Coast Guard Auxiliary provides capabilities and proficiencies that support these capacities and ensure we remain responsive to our communities and the Nation. The Auxiliary is a force multiplier of vetted and trained volunteers devoted to the support of Coast Guard missions and provides a broad inventory of vital skills, assets, and experience for our units across the nation. As the leading volunteer organization in the Department of Homeland Security, it is an essential component of our daily operations and an effective resource primed to prevent and respond to catastrophes in the maritime region. Fittingly, the core strategic purpose of the Auxiliary is to continuously hone its expertise to perform three prioritized functions: (1) Promote and improve recreational boating safety; (2) Support Coast Guard maritime homeland security efforts; and (3) Support the Coast Guard’s operational, administrative, and logistical requirements. The Coast Guard Auxiliary shall remain Semper Paratus, providing a dynamic flexibility within its organizational programs in order to meet today’s needs and tomorrow’s challenges. Through focused partnerships and public outreach, it shall advocate and advance maritime domain awareness and the principles of safe boating. Its diverse assortment of vessels, aircraft, radio facilities, and vehicles shall be kept poised for the multi-mission tasking that characterizes Coast Guard operations.

  • Technology Against Terrorism: Structuring Security (January 1992)
    Technology Against Terrorism: Structuring Security January 1992 OTA-ISC-511 NTIS order #PB92-152529 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Technology Against Terrorism: Structur- ing Security, OTA-ISC-511 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, January 1992). FOr sale by the U.S. Government Printing Office Superintendent of Documents, Mail Stop SS0p. Washington, D.C. 20402-9328 ISBN 0-16 -036061-7 Foreword Terrorism is not a new phenomenon, but it has become more prominent during the past two decades. Terrorist attacks have included not only political assassinations, but also large-scale attacks, often aimed at third parties, causing massive casualties. Two well-known examples are car bombings, employing hundreds of kilograms of high explosives, and attacks on commercial aircraft around the world. The U.S. Government and the American public became acutely aware of terrorism after the bombing of Pan American Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland in December 1988. The recent war in the Persian Gulf heightened fears of renewed terrorist attacks on U.S. targets, both overseas and at home. In 1989, because of growing concern over terrorist threats, several Senate Committees requested that OTA study the role of technology in fighting terrorism and the Federal effort in promoting related research and development. The requesting Committees were: Govern- mental Affairs; Foreign Relations (Subcommittee on Terrorism, Narcotics, and International Operations); and Commerce, Science, and Transportation, together with its Subcommittee on Aviation. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence also endorsed the study. This report is the second and final one in response to these requests. The frost was transmitted to Congress in a classified version in September 1990.
