USCG rescue off Tillamook shows Coast Guard adaptability in an emergency

Today's show is about an unusual Coast Guard rescue in the waters off Tillamook, where they were able to rescue someone whose ship was further out to sea than would normally be possible for a USCG helicopter rescue. Crews adapted to add flying range to their aircraft, and provided ICU services in the helicopter for a critically ill patient.
