SAN PEDRO, Calif. - Coast Guard Auxiliary members David Barber, (left) and Trent Kelly take note as Cub Scout Andrew Freitas tries his hand at the “monkey ball” toss. Earlier in the day Coast Guard Auxiliary members competed in search and rescue competition while the Scouts looked on. Scouts from a local troop spent the day at the Coast Guard base. The day’s activities included a ride aboard a 41 foot rescue boat (pictured bottom) (U.S. Coast Guard Photos by Anthony Turner, USCGAUX)
The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is the uniformed civilian component of the United States Coast Guard. Created by an Act of Congress in 1939, the Auxiliary directly supports the Coast Guard in all missions, except military and direct law enforcement actions.
