Yes, I recently submitted my application to join the Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 29. They need crewmen and radio watch operators. Currently they are assisting the CG in patrolling Long Beach/LA harbors. It's believed the patrols will significantly increase in the San Onofre Nuclear Facility area. The CG is stretched beyond their capabilities. I understand they are increasing their recruiting quotas...for those young enough to consider active military.

Here in LI Sound the USCGA is activly assisting the USCG stations in New Haven and New London. The local PD and Fire boats are also being used much more to assist with SAR and Port defense.
