EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14) \u2014 If you’ve ever thought about joining the military but wanted a role that blends service, adventure, and real-world impact, the United States Coast Guard may be the opportunity you’ve been looking for. The Coast Guard recruitment team<\/a> in El Paso is actively seeking new members and their mission is bigger than many realize.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Coast Guard’s presence in El Paso may surprise some, but their purpose goes far beyond the coastline. <\/p>\n

While the U.S. Coast Guard is part of the U.S. military and provides the same benefits as other branches, it operates under the Department of Homeland Security. That gives its members the ability to take on diverse missions – many focused on protecting people, the environment, and the nation’s waterways. <\/p>\n

The U.S. Coast Guard’s work is anchored in three primary areas:<\/p>\n

Law Enforcement<\/p>\n

Search and Rescue<\/p>\n

Environmental Protection<\/p>\n

One of their most significant roles is stopping illegal drug trafficking.<\/p>\n

They’re also first responders during hurricanes, oil spills, and emergencies at sea – saving lives while safeguarding the environment.<\/p>\n

For many El Paso recruits, that spirit of service is exactly what drew them in.<\/p>\n

Jesus Artalejo Artalejo, Fireman Apprentice shared, the benefits and the chance to earn a U.S. citizenship were major motivators. Daniel Well, Seaman Apprentice shared, the Coast Guard combines law enforcement and military service, creating the perfect pathway for a future career.<\/p>\n

The newest U.S. Coast Guard graduates from El Paso are now stationed across the country:<\/p>\n

Seattle, Washington<\/p>\n

Galveston, Texas<\/p>\n

Saginaw River, Michigan<\/p>\n

Their bootcamp experiences came with challenges – especially the teamwork and required knowledge but also unforgettable training in seamanship, firefighting, and marksmanship.<\/p>\n

“One of the hardest parts was the required knowledge,” Devyn Santaella, Seaman Apprentice said. “It was one of the most difficult things that I’ve done but at the end of the day – I love it and I wouldn’t change that decision.”<\/p>\n

The U.S. Coast Guard in El Paso is ready to help – true to their motto. Semper Paratus: Always Ready<\/p>\n
