That’s over 181,400,000$ if they send 50 1 million dollar subs and only one makes it then it pays for the next 50 to be sent you’ll never make a dent you need to legalize and regulate everything this “war on drugs”will never end regulation and legalization is the only way look at Mexico do you want to know why they sell drugs to the US and not Mexico because everything is legal down there you can go to a store and buy oxy / Xanax / Coke what ever you want like a candy store and it’s all illegal here so the prices are skyrocketed and you cause killings / drug dealer / extortion / kidnapping for what?

While I was in Charleston sc at the FLETC where all USCG ME's go to A school they had a drug sub that was very similar like the one the TACLET operators boarded in this video. Its absolutely insane how cramped it was inside for four people at one time favoring cargo space over anything else. On a further note the craft had literal engines of a farm tractor custom fitted into it while the entire craft was mostly made out of fiberglass it's something i'll never to be able to do again and I loved the experience.

I have a buddy who does TACLET. I remember when he joined the coast guard instead of going to college, I thought it was a cool job but I never thought of them as military operators… Then one day I got a picture of him gearing up to do some gnarly anti terrorism operation in the Middle East (not even sure what country). From then on, I’ve always had a great respect for coasties. They do a lot more unique and awesome jobs than most people know about.

My high school chemistry teacher was a member of TacLet from 83-93 he then went back to teaching until he retired in 2021, Mr. Wolfe was a badass
