Back in '50s - '70s, Coast Guard had Cutters patrolling 4 areas In the Atlantic and two areas in the Pacific. Patrol areas were "boxes", 210 mile Ă'210 miles. Wevprovided navigational aid to aircraft and trans-oceanic ship traffic. Also search and rescue, hydrographic measurements, "weather balloon" observations and communications support. Plus other assigned tasks. The average Cutter spent a year alternating between a month in port for maintenance and a month at sea, on patrol. Stormy weather brought "mountainous seas" right up close and personal.

This happened to my mother and I in 1953 on a Pan Am Clipper. We were only a few miles from Hawaii though. The US Navy rescued us. Our plane didn't sink. It floated. I was only two at the time. So the details were forgotten years ago. I never knew this happened more than once until I seen this.

Some years later I served with the former Captain of the Pontchartrain, he had made movies of this event and we all had to watch. He went on to captan other CG vessels including one of the wind class icebreakers and the HEC Chase. He was an expert Trumpet player and often woke the crew by playing reveille on the ships PA system.
