The U.S. Coast Guard is a state-owned armed force established in 1790. With approximately 27,900 personnel, its headquarters are located in the United States. Its primary function is maritime security and enforcement, encompassing a wide range of responsibilities including search and rescue, law enforcement, and national defense.
The U.S. Coast Guard proposed a new two-way shipping route along Alaska's northern coast to improve safety and efficiency for Arctic shipping. On an unspecified date, a $49.6 million, five-year contract was awarded to Stealth Solutions Inc. to modernize the Mariner Credentialing Program (MCP), replacing manual processes with an automated system called NAVITA™. This system will offer online applications, mariner profiles, and self-service tools. A separate agreement, also worth up to $49.6 million, was reached with Stealth Solutions to modernize the MCP, including developing new IT systems to streamline the merchant mariner credentialing process. A Coast Guard patrol included a cutter's first anchoring in Rota, supply deliveries to Saipan, and support for a Tinian emergency response exercise, resulting in over $10,000 in travel cost savings. Current U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary University Program members will undergo uniform inspections and ID photo taking; interested students and prospective members are invited to attend and ask questions.
