Coast Guard Rescue on Alaska's High Seas | Rogue Wave | 2

Coast Guard Rescue on Alaska's High Seas | Rogue Wave | 2

Forced to abandon the La Conte, the five fishermen — Bob Doyle, Mark Morley, Mike DeCapua, Giggy Mork and David Hanlon — find themselves at the mercy of towering waves and galeforce winds as they float in the frigid sea. As they prayed for a swift rescue, the Coast Guard helicopter crew sent from Sitka soon discovered this wasn’t an ordinary, or predictable, storm.
