The Coast Guard Remains The Best of Us By Deploying A Helicopter and Dive Team To Rescue A Good Boy That Fell Off A Cliff
Each and every day the Coast Guard does something that's incredible. I've said it a ton of time's on Zero Blog 30 but it's hard to argue that any branch of the Armed Forces (Department of Homeland Security if you're nasty) does more than them. I mean, look at this puppy. My dude had to be scared out of his mind getting whooshed around in the air with prop winds hitting well over 100 miles an hour.
The account linked is just the Pacific Northwest. Here are some other things they've done over the last couple of weeks.
The level of courage to be a rescue swimmer truly blows my mind. I'm a great swimmer. When I was on active duty, I had the highest swim qualifications a Marine can have. I would never, ever attempted to do this shit. Coast Guard rescue swimmers are truly some of the bravest folks out there. Mad respect. If I wasn't a Marine, I'd wanna be a Coastie.
