| 摘要： | I have great respect for the men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard. Over the past 30 years, I've come in contact with quite a few of them and have come away impressed. Overall, they have a job that is next to impossible. And yet they find a way to get it all done. They're our cop on the beat in the Arctic, our Good Samaritans following a hurricane, rescuers when we're miles offshore and the boat goes down. They get the Great Lakes cargo carriers to their destinations by plowing a path through the ice, and chase the drug smugglers whose merchandise can be deadly. And that's just a sampling of the agency's responsibilities. Incredibly, they do it all well. Recently, however, the Coast Guard has been leaking oil. The service faces a number of challenges that our Washington, D.C. correspondent Pamela Glass reports on in her story that starts on page 16. The National Academy of Sciences, at the request of Congress, recently issued a report on the emerging issues that will require Coast Guard action over the next decade and provided recommendations. |
