Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history
Does the scope of WP:MILHIST also include unarmed coast guards like the CMSA or the Canadian coast guard? Additionally, do unarmed coast guards used for paramilitary purposes like the CMS fall under the scope of WP:MILHIST even though they are unarmed? On the same topic, do armed agencies with a civilian law enforcement role (like the CBP Air and Marine Operations) fall under WP:MILHIST?
If there are no rules on this yet, I propose one of 5 solutions:
- All coast guards fall under the scope of WP:MILHIST
- Only armed coast guards like the USCG or CCG fall under the scope of WP:MILHIST
- Unarmed coast guards fall under the scope of WP:MILHIST if they are used for non-search and rescue military purposes (e.g. CMS)
- Unarmed coast guards fall under the scope of WP:MILHIST if they are organizationally under the military, such as Mexican Maritime Search and Rescue
- All armed coast guards with military weapons(e.g. CBPAMO) fall under WP:MILHIST regardless of role
