Abstract
Russ Hebert '65 proudly relates a risky heavy weather rescue on board USCGC OWASCO while on Ocean Station Charlie with the same aft damage control team some time after their bilge fire experience (see 'Risks from Fraternization (3:26)' vignette). While on Ocean Station Charlie, these same men recovered the crew of a sinking fishing boat - requiring quick thinking and concerted action to pull them from heavy seas into a rubber raft and then up a scramble net - a highly successful rescue.
