Our Mission

We are located at the Inland Port of Pittsburgh and are an active force multiplier for the US Coast Guard Marine Safety Unit Pittsburgh.

The generosity of our members to serve is the engine that moves our ship.

Our Vision 

To be a Flotilla where members find purpose and a way to share their talents to serve our community in a professional and collaborative environment where members learn, support, and respect each other, are proud to be members of the USCG family, and strive to become the best volunteer organization in Western Pennsylvania.

We follow the USCG AUX National vision of being "the best trained, most valued maritime volunteer organization in the world – highly effective during normal operations and ready for emergencies.”

Our Values

Volunteer Service – We offer our time and talents to actively participate and support the USCG, USCG AUX, our community, and our fellow Auxiliary members. 


The Cornerstones of Flotilla 07-02 and the US Coast Guard Auxiliary are Member Services, Operations and Marine Safety, Recreational Boating Safety, University Programs, and Fellowship

Flotilla 082-07-02 was the first chartered US Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla in the Port of Pittsburgh in 1958. Our membership is well dispersed throughout the Pittsburgh area with several members residing in Morgantown, WV, Canonsburg, Kittanning, as well as a strong contingent from Beaver County, Pennsylvania. The members operate Auxiliary Facility vessels on all three rivers in the port and conduct Safety Patrols and augment the Coast Guard Marine Safety Unit Pittsburgh missions when called upon. The flotilla has an extensive and active public outreach program as well as a trained and certified vessel exam team. Flotilla 07-02 has a cadre of well trained and qualified member training officers offering on-hand senior mentor guidance to new members.

Franciscan University Detachment is the Flotilla's Auxiliary University Program (AUP). The AUP offers college students multiple levels of training culminating with an Active-Duty Coast Guard Internship placement program and AUP graduation status once the program courses are successfully completed per the AUP Program of Study. AUP draws its leadership philosophy from the active duty Coast Guard and Coast Guard Auxiliary, and students are guided by the AUP’s Leadership and Management Guide during their AUP participation.
