Its a trick question. Especially since the USCG is part of Homeland Security.....Not the military. It can however operate under the Department of the Navy during wartime.

I think the answer you are trying to get is 5 military 1 civilian(Busch).

THE WATERS OFF MARATHON ARE HOME TO THE WRECK OF THUNDERBOLT, A 188-FOOT CABLE LAYER THAT LATER SERVED AS A RESEARCH VESSEL TO EXPLORE THE ELECTRICAL ENERGY OF LIGHTNING STRIKES. THE LOCAL DIVE COMMUNITY PURCHASED THUNDERBOLT, ORIGINALLY NAMED RANDOLPH, AND SANK IT INTENTIONALLY AS A DIVE ATTRACTION MARCH 3, 1986, IN APPROXIMATELY 120 FEET OF WATER 6.5 MILES SOUTH OF DUCK KEY CHANNEL IN THE FLORIDA KEYS NATIONAL MARINE SANCTUARY.
