Flotilla Commander's
Greeting
Welcome to our website.
We are The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 34, located in
Pompano Beach,
FL. We are America's Volunteer Lifesavers, the civilian branch of
the Coast Guard
family.
The Auxiliary was formed by
congressional act in 1939 as the Coast Guard Reserve. 14 U.S.C.
822 It aids the Coast Guard in its non-military,
non-law-enforcement tasks, such as search and rescue, aids to
navigation maintenance, environmental protection, public boater
education, and private and fishing vessel examination.
Teams of Auxiliarists act in these
mission areas under Coast Guard orders, and individual Auxiliarists
supplement Active Duty and Reserve Coast Guard units.
Auxiliarists under orders operate with the authority and under the
direction of the United States Coast Guard. We wear Coast Guard
uniforms with specific devices indicating that we are members of the
auxiliary.
Our mission is to assist the
Coast Guard in fulfilling all of its goals, in any way that we are
qualified and able.
Through training, our members become qualified in various
fields, such as:
Communications, Public Education, Vessel Safety Checks, Boat Crew
and Coxswain.
But not everything we do is
hard work. We take part in civic affairs such as the Memorial Day
Parade and the
Holiday Parade in Pompano Beach, and the Spring Beach Bash in Deerfield
Beach. We
also have social activities where members get together just for fun and
fellowship.
We invite you to learn more
about the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and the volunteer opportunities it
provides by
exploring our website.
