P
eople hanging out at the beach near Seaview, Washington, were treated to an impromptu demonstration this week of a
water rescue training operation. The Coast Guard joined Paciﬁ c County emergency responders to practice how to save
lives. Mock victims were plucked from the water by jet ski, transported to the beach and moved to waiting ambulances.
