Manage episode 394698114 series 1930888
Hurricanes are a fact of life in the Caribbean but in 2017, the season was so bad that it changed everything for the people of Puerto Rico. Only two weeks after another major hurricane, Maria barreled into the island bringing more than 200 mile per hour winds, rain and flooding. In the aftermath, the Coast Guard with their helicopters are crucial to search and rescue, aid drops and surveying damage. We spoke to two Coast Guard members, as well as one of our own colleagues, about what the hurricane was like, and what happened after.
We’re joined by Vanessa Parés, Digitization Coordinator NASM
Thanks to our guests for this episode:
Captain Ed Aponte, U.S. Coast Guard
Avionics Technician First Class Mari DeLong, U.S. Coast Guard
