Medevac in Bering Sea
An Air Station Kodiak Coast Guard MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew, forward deployed to Cold Bay, medevaced a 42-year-old man from the "Blue Gadus" in the Bering Sea on Oct 18, 2013. The Jayhawk crew rendezvoused with the longliner 207 miles northwest of Cold Bay, safely hoisted the man aboard and transported him to Cold Bay to meet emergency medical personnel with LifeFlight for further transport to an advanced medical care facility. Coast Guard watchstanders at the 17th District command center received a request from Health Force Partners Friday morning for the medevac. The man was reportedly suffering from severe chest pain. The Coast Guard duty flight surgeon was contacted and concurred with the need for the medevac. Coast Guard watchstanders directed the launch of the Jayhawk crew from Cold Bay and also dispatched a Coast Guard HC-130 Hercules airplane crew with a Coast Guard corpsman aboard from Kodiak to Cold Bay as a backup mode of transportation in the event poor weather in the Central Aleutians prevented the LifeFlight plane from landing in Cold Bay.
