Welcome to Coast Guard Station Juneau
Mission
The crew of Station Juneau is dedicated, heart and mind to
excellence. Through superior training, open communications, and
commitment to each other, we provide the best possible service to the
public. As a result, we set a shining example to other units and our
community.
Command Philosophy
It is our responsibility to adhere to good order and discipline by
creating a place where each of us feel safe, expand our knowledge and be
ourselves. Each of you will be expected to challenge yourselves and
fulfill your assigned billet. You will be given the opportunity to make a
difference. I expect each of you to be a positive role model, adhere
to policies and be above reproach in all that you do. Be the go to guy!
I will hold each of you accountable for your actions as you should hold each
shipmate accountable for theirs. Always think safety. Loosing
situational awareness for just one moment can have consequences that not
only effect you but effect those around you. Your positive attitude
can be contagious to all those around you. Take time out of each day to
reflect on the positive.

Station History
Coast Guard Station Juneau dates back to the middle 1950’s.
The original Station was located in Auke Bay, and remained there until 1978,
when it was moved to its current location. Then, as now, the station
performed all missions assigned today with the additional mission of
servicing manned lighthouses.
The first resource assigned was the 38-foot Pickett boat. The
Pickett was replaced by a 40-foot Utility boat then later relieved by a
44-foot steel Motor Lifeboat. The Motor Lifeboat was destroyed during
a dramatic rescue of a family of four during a winter storm (http://www.44mlb.com/written-statement-glen-hart.htm
). Replacing the destroyed 44-foot Motor Lifeboat was the 41-foot UTB.
The UTB was replaced in 2000 by a 47-foot Motor Lifeboat, and in 2011 the
MLB was replaced by the 45-foot Response Boat – Medium.
Resources
The Station Currently has two 45-foot RB-Ms and two 25-foot RB-Ss.
