Scott in your vast experience have you ever known a boarding party to use a flash-bang? The chance of fire is great, at least in houses.
Irv...no I can't say I have ever heard of a flash bang being used by the USCG...that's because most boardings are routine and the targeted vessels really don't pose a threat
The boarding teams are trained to observe what looks routine and what doesn't.
State jurisdiction ends at 3 miles.....there may be a few agreements that allow very limited enforcement out further...
Probably similar to National waters out to 12...but EEZ out to 200.
