Welcome to Division 3, United States Coast Guard Heartland District - Western Rivers. Thank you for taking time to view our website. The US Coast Guard Auxiliary is the uniformed volunteer civilian organization administered by the Commandant of the United States Coast Guard, under the direction of the Secretary of Homeland Security. Auxiliary members are tasked primarily with recreational boating safety but also receive specialized training in order to assist and conduct marine and air patrols on and over local waterways, assist in search and rescue missions, teach boating safety classes, conduct free courtesy vessel safety checks for the public, and assist the Coast Guard in times of emergencies. Advanced training prepares us to serve alongside our active-duty shipmates as communications watchstanders, pilots or air crew, interpreters, and even as chefs! We are a force multiplier for the U. S. Coast Guard and participate in all Coast Guard missions except those involving direct law enforcement and military missions.
