Coast Guard Petty Officer 1st Class Timothy Washington, a boatswain’s mate assigned to USCGC Eagle (WIX 327), prepares to throw a grappling hook to retrieve an empty survival suit floating 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.
