Petty Officer 2nd Class Benjamin Holt, an instructor at the rescue swimmer school, pre-checks Airman Eric Lamy, who is a student at the Coast Guard rescue swimmer school in, as he prepares for a test in Elizabeth City, N.C. When students graduate they will take the place of an aircrew position finding themselves being deployed into a myriad of challenging rescues ranging from hurricanes and cliff rescues, to emergency medical evacuations from ships at sea.
