Coast Guard maritime enforcement specialists arrive near the Coast Guard base in Los Angeles-Long Beach after completing a canine vertical insertion exercise. The training involves lowering canines and their handlers from a helicopter to the boat and then hoisting them back up. Such exercises help prepare the team for rapid response to threats, hone skills, and obtain the best search behavior from the four-legged servicemembers during insertion operations.
