Current Events > Is the Coast Guard selling millions of dollars of illegal drugs?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Because that's kinda what is implied here.

One source of pride many Coast Guard men and women take in their service being undervalued—as many told me begrudgingly during my four days here at Coast Guard Base Seattle—is that their work pays for itself.

For example, the National Security Cutter Stratton returned from a three-month deployment in which the crew captured 6 tons of pure cocaine with a street value exceeding $55 million. The Stratton costs $467 million. Already, the cutter has paid down a significant amount of the costs required to build it. In total, the Coast Guard removed nearly $6 billion in cocaine at sea last year before it reach the U.S. mainland.

That's some Maeby and George Michael running the banana stand math.
