    A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter (tail number 6032) is on a tarmac or landing pad with personnel conducting what appears to be a medical transfer or rescue operation. A stretcher/gurney is visible being moved toward or away from the aircraft, with several personnel in dark uniforms and at least one in an orange flight suit present. A city skyline and cruise ship are visible in the background, consistent with a harbor location.

    Emergency medical personnel walk to an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter at Coast Guard Sector San Diego, to transport an ailing crewman to a hospital for treatment after he was medically evacuated from the bulk carrier ship he was on, April 16, 2013. The Jayhawk crew hoisted the 46-year-old man from the Liberian-flagged motor vessel As Elysia after he began experiencing severe abdominal pain 300 miles offshore of San Diego.
