--.3-1--sesgwn-rw-122-inex-f-ff-vwevrfyp-ea-2-sy-2:-rlxm., Aircraft In The Water, Now Man Your Pilot Rescue Stations These words were passed on Sunday after- noon, 10 August 1969. Many of the crew were catching up on lost sleep, others were on the helo deck catching the last of the sun's rays, axfew were writing home of the dull life on Yankee Station. But at that moment, everyone responded im- mediately to the word that four pilots were in the water. Pilot rescue equipment was laid out on the forecastle. The motor whale boat was lowered to the rail, manned and started. Swimmers donned their wet suits in case they might be needed. On the bridge, the Captain assumed the conn and brought the ship alongside the four downed crewmen. The motor whale boat was low- ered and recovered two men, the pilot and a crew member. The co-pilot and remain- ing crewman were brought aboard the fore- castle by harness. The only casualty was one crewman's broken arm. The entire rescue took twelve' minutes. The helo crew was returned to USS BON HOMME RICHARD by helo about one hour later, to fly again.
