Abstract
The United States has a particular system of maritime law enforcement, based on a unique and close relationship throughout over 200 years of US history between the US Navy and the fifth Armed Service, the US Coast Guard. Due to the Posse Comitatus Act, passed by Congress in the period after the US Civil War to prohibit the other federal Armed Services from being used as civilian law enforcement officers, the US Coast Guard is the only US Armed Service with law enforcement authority.
