Word of an upcoming SOUTHCOM exercise in the Caribbean. The US Coast Guard will undoubtably participate. Mexico is coordinating the Naval portion of the exercise which will include law enforcement and humanitarian assistance/disaster response (HA/DR).

In many ways the Mexican Navy parallels the US Coast Guard. If you would like to check out some of their resources, these previous posts may be of interest.
