Summary[edit]

Description
English: A KC-130J Hercules aircraft from Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 152 aided the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Guam with a search and rescue mission June 6 approximately 60 nautical miles northwest of Chuuk Island. The Coast Guard was notified June 5 at 3:17 p.m. that two mariners piloting a 23-foot skiff were overdue to Chuuk Island and initiated a search-and-rescue mission. The Marines were asked to assist in the search with available air assets that evening and launched the aircraft the next morning, spotting the mariners at 2:00 p.m. The Marines dropped a life raft containing food, water and other supplies to the mariners and coordinated with the Coast Guard to have a rescue vessel arrive and transport the mariners to Chuuk Island. VMGR-152 is part of Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Air Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force. The aircraft and crew are currently in support of Exercise Geiger Fury 2012.
