Medevac off Corpus Christi

The US Coast Guard medevaced a crewmember from the 'Ram XVII' approximately 20 miles offshore Port Aransas, Texas, in the morning of Dec 20, 2019. Coast Guard Sector/Air Station Corpus Christi watchstanders received a request for medevac from the captain of the vessel for a 20-year-old male who injured his leg while conducting operations. A Sector/Air Station Corpus Christi MH-65 Dolphin helicopter aircrew and a Station Port Aransas 45-foot Response Boat-Medium boat crew were launched for the medevac. Once on scene, the MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew hoisted and transferred the crewmember to awaiting emergency medical services personnel at Sector/Air Station Corpus Christi.
