SAR crews pack week with boat camp training

,

Search and rescue technicians of 413 (Transport and Rescue) Squadron were in the air, over the water – and in the water east of Halifax November 14 to 21, tackling an extraction training sequence aboard a Canadian Coast Guard vessel. Regular “boat camp” sessions are opportunities to practice maritime extraction, small-craft operations and rescue readiness tasks; often with Coast Guard and other SAR partners. In this one week, crews completed 488 training sequences through over 84 flying hours.
