20443b. Waters, John M. Jr., RESCUE AT SEA. Annapolis. 1989. 2nd. 324p. DJ. The intense drama of air rescue at sea – its triumphs and its losses – has been woven into this story of high adventure by a man who devoted his career to the hazardous profession. Captain John Waters has participated in thousands of rescues and as chief of the Coast Guard’s Search and Rescue Division in the 1960’s, he promulgated many of the procedures that remain in effect today. In this hard-hitting saga Captain Waters provides an intimate view of the Coast Guard’s search and rescue over the past forty years, a moving tribute to the brave men and women of the Coast Guard’s SAR service. Well illustrated with photographs. (M). $32.95 / Closeout $23.
