                     Welcome to the US Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 15-08 website!

The US Coast Guard Auxiliary was created by Congress in 1939 to assist active duty Coast Guard units with all their missions, excluding military and law enforcement. Today the Auxiliary assists in search and rescue missions, verifying aids to navigation, marine safety and environmental protection, vessel safety inspections, teaching boating safety classes, and much, much more!

Flotilla 15-08, based in Plattsburgh, NY, assists USCG Station Burlington VT on the beautiful and historic Lake Champlain.
