I have 30+ years out in the Gulf and other waters and have yet to see a NOAA vessel do anything other than research and catch fish. Just got back from Venice fishing and there was a NOAA girl there getting samples and she did not have a gun nor need one for that fact. All patrols I have seen and any boardings of any vessels in the gulf or any others waters have been by the CG. I suppose I could be called into action being I used to be a Licensed Merchant Marine Officer, but I doubt that would ever happen, to old and would not be worth much. Calling NOAA out to do anything other than make laws for fishing and counting fish is all I ever see them doing or being used for and they can not even get that right.
The last report I read was the government had ordered billions of rounds using the excuse they get it cheaper and they have so many personnel that need range time. Why would the IRS need hundreds of thousands of rounds in 9MM and 357?? They do not have that many people anymore and state they have been cutting back on personnel!?? BANG BANG!!
It is a big BMW Big Money Waste!!
