Guardia Costera de los Estados Confederados

From Themarshallwiki

The Guardia Costera de los Estados Confederados is Latin America's maritime law enforcement agency. It is part of the AEC, though in peacetime, it is controlled by the Attorney General's Department. In wartime, the GCEC is controlled by the Department of Defence. Guardia Costera ships are named for law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty, while smaller patrol boats are numbered. All craft are painted in distinctive national colours, with a red bow, blue hull, and white elsewhere. This gives the ships an attractive, highly visible, and distinctive appearance. Aircraft are white with red for high visibility. Some helicopters are red all over, with blue in places to provide contrast. The missions of the GCEC include:

  • Maritime Rescue
  • Customs Enforcement
  • Counter Piracy
  • Supporting other Federal, and State agencies
