    Lt. Ray Cerrato, commanding officer of USCGC Oliver Henry (WPC 1140), and Chief Petty Officer Carleton Kleinschrodt, visit with leaders on Satawal, Federated States of Micronesia, after safely returning six rescued fishermen and their 22-foot fiberglass boat to the community, on Aug. 18, 2024. The vessel, which had been adrift after experiencing engine failure, was towed to Satawal Atoll by the Oliver Henry, arriving roughly two hours later. The Joint Rescue Sub-Center (JRSC) Guam watch received a distress alert from a 406MHz Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) registered in the United States at approximately 9 a.m. local time on Aug. 17. The beacon, lent out by a Yap-based owner to outer island fishermen, was activated, signaling potential distress about 27 nautical miles north northeast of Satawal.
