Guardians of the Last Frontier

Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak is a Coast Guard District Seventeen (D17) unit located on Kodiak Island, approximately 250 miles southwest of Anchorage, Alaska. Air Station Kodiak was first commissioned as an Air Detachment on April 17, 1947, with one PBY Catalina aircraft, seven pilots, and 30 crewmen, serving as the first permanent Coast Guard aviation resource in Alaska. Air Station Kodiak is the major tenant of Coast Guard Base Kodiak. Today, it stands as the largest Coast Guard command in both D17 and the entire Pacific Area (PACAREA) with its fleet of HC-130Js and MH-60Ts.

Air Station Kodiak operates across a vast and challenging area of responsibility (AOR) that spans over 4 million square miles, including the Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Alaska, Bristol Bay, Bering Sea, and Arctic Ocean. The dynamic weather conditions, rugged terrain, and remoteness of this AOR encompass some of the most demanding flight conditions for Coast Guard operations.

The primary missions of Air Station Kodiak include:

  • Search and Rescue (SAR)

  • Enforcement of Laws and Treaties (ELT)

  • Marine Environmental Protection (MEP)

  • Aids to Navigation

  • National Defense

  • Disaster Control and Relief

  • Support to Local, State, and Federal Agencies

  • Support to Native Alaskan Communities
