Maybe. When the President is aboard a military aircraft, the name of the
military service is stated, followed by the word "One." But is the USCG
truly a military service? While it has the look and feel of the military,
it isn't part of the Department of Defense.

During time of declared war (this isn't, despite 'war' designations),
the Coast Guard becomes part of the DoD, specifically the US Navy,
unless this has changed since the CG moved over to the DoHS from DoT
recently...

That's what I recall, anyway. I don't have proof of this, I could be
wrong.
