    Bolivia established a River and Lake Force (Fuerza Fluvial y Lacustre) in January 1963 under the Ministry of National Defense. It consisted of four boats supplied from the United States and 1,800 personnel recruited largely from the Bolivian Army.

    Just pointing out that that is 450 people PER. BOAT.

    (I know there's overhead, just being silly)

    Seems like they expanded...

    The Bolivian Navy has a total of 173 vessels with many stationed on Lake Titicaca...

    I will never ever ever be able to read that lake's name with a straight face.
