Davis prepare to detain four persons from a semi-submersible drug trafficking vessel in international waters off the coast of Ecuador on Dec. 31, 2008. A dozen suspected drug smugglers were apprehended in the Eastern Pacific Ocean following the interception of three semi-submersible vessels within nine days by Navy and Coast Guard ships on routine patrol in the region.
