While serving in the U.S. Navy as a Search and Rescue (SAR) Swimmer I was on a flight of the coast of the Bahamas at sunset for a training flight. I always brought my camera with me when I flew and this evening was no exception. I was able to capture this image of two of my buddies as they were being hoisted back in to the MH-60s helicopter after jumping out.

Do you guys still call it "McGuire Rig"? Thank you for your service Brandon.
In the image the Rescue Swimmer attached the hoist to his TRI-SAR harness. The other rescue swimmer and "acting survivor", is attached the the hoist via a rescue strop.
Thank you!
