That thread about the body/barrel in Lake Mead reminded me of this.
Back in the very early 90s, I was stationed at Corpus Christi. Flew a lot of SAR stuff and did a couple of drug runs with the USCG. I also got to know the base Dog Doc, who was married to one of the nurses on base. He, the dog doc, and I got to talking about drug searches along the border.
He told me that one of the dogs he took care of was kinda famous.
BP or Customs, or whoever had reason to stop a tank truck from coming back into the US. The dog alerted, so they drained and purged the tank and inside they found several small propane cylinders, which had several pounds of cocaine inside. They had all been welded shut.
