Łódź Straży Wybrzeża

Straż Wybrzeża Stanów Zjednoczonych (ang. United States Coast Guard – USCG) − jeden z rodzajów amerykańskich sił zbrojnych. Jej zadaniem jest obrona narodowa, ochrona bezpieczeństwa morskiego, wsparcie przy egzekwowaniu amerykańskiego prawa na wodach okalających terytorium Stanów Zjednoczonych oraz ochrona środowiska naturalnego. Łączy funkcje wojskowe i cywilne. Służy w niej około 40 tys. ludzi. W rezerwie pozostaje około 39 tys. ludzi[1]. Straż Wybrzeża w czasie pokoju podlega Departamentowi Bezpieczeństwa Krajowego, a nie Departamentowi Obrony, tak jak pozostałe rodzaje sił zbrojnych. W czasie wojny zaś staje się organizacją podległą Marynarce Wojennej[2].

Flag of the United States.svg
The flag of Navassa Island is simply the United States flag. It does not have a "local" flag or "unofficial" flag; it is an uninhabited island. The version with a profile view was based on Flags of the World and as a fictional design has no status warranting a place on any Wiki. It was made up by a random person with no connection to the island, it has never flown on the island, and it has never received any sort of recognition or validation by any authority. The person quoted on that page has no authority to bestow a flag, "unofficial" or otherwise, on the island.
