This evolution was the first time that information and tactics
shared by personnel from the U.S. Coast Guard and the other in-
volved nations would actually be used in a simulated boarding.
After coming alongside the target vessel, boarding team members
scrambled onboard and asked, “without reaching for or touching,
do you have any weapons” and conducted an Initial Safety In-
spection, a quick search of the vessel that ensures the safety of
both the boarding team and the vessel’s crew.
“They did very well out there,” said Heuser. “They took the
things we talked about during our discussions on land and actu-
ally used those procedures in the field.”
Once their boarding was complete and all objectives had been
met, Gaspar Grande’s law enforcement officers returned to the
ship and Heuser met with them and the command for a de-brief
and critique.
“That was an extremely well done job,” he told the team. “Ev-
erything followed proper procedures and had this been an actual
field operation, you would have everything needed to detain the
suspects and build a strong case against them.”
