U.S. Coast Guardsmen assigned to the coastal patrol boat USCGC Haddock (WPB 87347) count bales of marijuana aboard a seized panga in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of southern California March 17, 2014, as part of Operation Martillo. The Coast Guard and Customs and Border Protection tracked and interdicted the panga more than 140 miles south of San Diego. Operation Martillo is a joint, interagency and multinational collaborative effort to deny transnational criminal organizations air and maritime access to the littoral regions of the Central American isthmus.
