The U.S. Coast Guard offloaded millions of dollars' worth of cocaine at Port Everglades, making it one of the largest seizures by a single ship during a single mission in history, officials said Wednesday morning.

Several government officials were in attendance as the USCG offloaded more than 49,000 pounds of cocaine, at an estimated $362 million.

"What you see behind me is more than just a pile of cocaine," said Commander of U.S. Coast Guard Atlantic Area, Vice Adm. Nathan Moore . "It represents a tangible victory in our ongoing fight against transnational criminal organizations and narco terrorism."

Officials said this is a result of 15 separate interceptions by the crews of U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Stone, along with aircrews and partner agencies in the Eastern Pacific Ocean.
