Coast Guard Petty Officer 1st Class Timothy Washington, a boatswain’s mate assigned to USCGC Eagle (WIX 327), pulls in a floating, empty survival suit with a grappling hook while underway in the Atlantic Ocean, April 14, 2023. The suit had no identifying markings for further inquiry and appeared to have fallen off a vessel an indeterminable amount of time prior, having some accumulated growth on the fabric.
