Duncan Hunter: “I think what the Coast Guard is going to do, and what DHS is going to do, is try to get the 100-percent perfect…”

I would like to differentiate, too, between super high-tech stuff that is in its infancy stages and is nascent--and a floating surfboard that can sense if there is oil in the water that has been around for 5 years or longer.

The Coast Guard needs to use every tool out there.

We are the ones, this committee before I was in Congress, put the C-RAM in Iraq in the first place.

I would hope there is crossover. All the lessons learned and the billions of dollars spent in Afghanistan over the last decade, the people that have been doing that there transferring their knowledge and capability to you.
