Why do people continue to think the Coast Guard does not deploy to the Middle East.?

The Coast Guard has multiple units in the region including Iraq, Bahrain, and Kuwait. The CGC Midgett recently returned from a patrol and was the first U.S. warship to moor in Yemen since the U.S.S. Cole bombing. There are multiple patrol boats as well as law enforcement teams that handle the boardings of ships in and out of the region.
