    Members from the Capital City Fire Rescue, 17th Coast Guard District, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Juneau, Coast Guard Auxiliary, State of Alaska Office of Boating Safety, and civilians, walking to the training site in Juneau, Alaska, May 27, 2021.
    The personnel conducted a joint agency training exercise that capped off the in-training safe boating instructors' week by having them be the simulated "victim" to be rescued.
    "It's important for our instructors to know what it's like to be rescued," said Mike Folkerts, Coast Guard 17th District boating safety expert. "They should have the personal experience of being rescued, and see rescues being performed in a controlled outdoor environment.
