A crewmember deployed on the Coast Guard Cutter CHARLES SEXTON distributes personal floatation devices to Cuban migrants on an unseaworthy vessel during a migrant interdiction. The Coast Guard is tasked with enforcing immigration law at sea. Between October 2021 and the following year, the Coast Guard interdicted over 10,000 Cuban migrants at sea. Its migrant interdiction operations are as much humanitarian efforts as they are law enforcement missions with the majority of these cases actually beginning as search and rescue missions.
