Listen Later

In this episode of The Real ResQ, we are joined by USCG Rescue Swimmer #363 Jimmy Farmer.  He shares some of his crazy rescues as we discuss his amazing career.  We talk about the Air Medal that he earned for his actions in Hurricane Katrina, a storm so devastating that without Jimmy and crew, 54 lives would not have been saved. In addition to the many people stuck on roof tops, Jimmy shares an incredible story about spotting one single hand waving from a roof top vent.  We also talk a bit about the Coast Guard's Polar Ops deployment to Antarctica.  With one story about a penguin and another with an unexpected event on the ice. Enjoy!
