Do hours spent on CG Crew Augmentation (Mission 26) count for a qualified Coxswain’s currency maintenance?

Will a member's hours underway, as crew aboard Coast Guard vessels on patrol, and reported on Form 7030 as Mission 26, “Coast Guard Crew Augmentation”, as Non-Lead, be counted toward a Coxswain’s annual currency requirements?

Mission 26, Coast Guard Crew Augmentation, is defined as, “Time spent airborne as a certified Auxiliary Pilot, Air Crewmember, or Air Crew Observer onboard a CG Aircraft in a non-augmentation roll or time spent underway as an Active Duty certified Boat Crewmember or Engineer onboard a standardized CG small boat (i.e. 45 RBM, 29 RBS, TANB)  in an augmentation role, or as a certified Auxiliary Coxswain or Auxiliary Crewmember underway onboard a standardized CG small boat (i.e. 45 RBM, 29 RBS, TANB) in a non-augmentation roll.  DO NOT USE FOR CG CUTTER OR SHORE SUPPORT.  All time is reported on any line as other than “Lead”.

• Hours spent as a qualified and certified crew on a Coast Guard boat count towards currency as an Auxiliary Coxswain.
• Hours spent training to qualify do not.

You can't be crew if you're in training at the time. If you're not crew, you can't use Mission 26.

Note that MIssion Code 26 hours do not count towards the Annual Performance Award for Surface Operations or the Annual Performance Award for CG Operational Support.
