Long range medevac off Mexico

Air National Guardsmen from the 129th Rescue Wing successfully completed a complex rescue of an injured crew member of the "Carl Rickmers" approximately 300 miles off the coast of Mexico at noon Nov 29, 2012. The Rescue Wing received a call from the U.S. Coast Guard on Nov. 26, concerning an injured ship hand aboard the cargo vessel. The man had suffered a serious head injury requiring treatment beyond the capabilities of the vessel's medical staff. Due to the vessel's remote location in the Pacific Ocean and the immediate need for medical care, the 129th RQW accepted the mission. An HH-60G Pave Hawk rescue helicopter, accompanied by a MC-130P Combat Shadow refueling aircraft, departed Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, in the morning and flew to the vessel's location in the East Pacific Ocean. The 129th RQW's Guardian Angel pararescuemen boarded the vessel via hoist and prepared the patient for recovery. He was treated aboard the helicopter during its two-hour flight back to Mexico. Upon arriving at Cabo San Lucas, the patient was loaded onto the MC-130P and flown to Marine Corps Air Station Miramar near San Diego. He was subsequently transported via ambulance to a local level-four trauma center. Report with video: http://www.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123328108
