A Coast Guard aviation survival technician—better known as a rescue swimmer—executes a daring rescue of victim of a tugboat mishap who fell overboard in the cold waters off Alaska’s rugged southwestern coast. The state has more than 33,000 miles of coastline and its harsh environment often makes such rescues harrowing.
