## Caption

Long before the U.S. military began striking boats it suspected of smuggling drugs, the Coast Guard has pursued a very different campaign against drug smuggling on the water. Our reporters spent two days with the Coast Guard’s drug interdiction teams to see how they stop suspected drug smuggling boats and seize narcotics using nonlethal tactics.
