Since Aug. 4, 1790, the United States Coast Guard has been America’s Maritime Guardian, charged with safety and security on and environmental stewardship of the nation’s waterways. Created by America’s Founding Father Alexander Hamilton when he was the fledgling nation’s first Secretary of the Treasury, the service is the only one of the Armed Forces to have domestic law enforcement and regulatory authority. Best known for its search and rescue missions, the Coast Guard was the first of the Armed Forces to respond to both 9/11 and the massive 2010 earthquake in Haiti.
