| 摘要： | Our country is in much better shape when both of its main political parties are strong. Likewise, the U.S. maritime industry is better off when the U.S. Coast Guard is strong. Already stretched thin by a long list of responsibilities, the Coast Guard faces more challenges and expanding missions over the next decade due to climate change, new technologies such as autonomous marine systems, and global strategic competition particularly from China, according to a new study from the National Academy of Sciences. To address current and future challenges, the Coast Guard needs to boost its ability to analyze data, acquire the technology to do this, and develop and maintain a workforce that is trained to meet these challenges, the study said. But there are many more challenges facing the Coast Guard such as recruitment and retention, and the controversy over the agency's cover-up of allegations of sexual assault at its academy. As some former Coasties have pointed out to us, the Coast Guard has been a struggling program for a long time and it has recently only gotten worse. |
