    ELIZBETH CITY, N.C. - The Coast Guard's first five rescue swimmers stand in front of a plaque naming Air Station Elizabeth City as the birthplace of Coast Guard rescue swimmers after a ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the Coast Guard rescue swimmer program on April 2, 2010. The first five (from left) are Joe "Butch" Flythe, Steve Ober, Matthew Fithian, Kelly Gordon and Rick Woolford. Ober and Gordon were the first two rescue swimmers, graduating from a Navy rescue swimmer school on Oct. 5, 1984. Air Station Elizabeth City became the first rescue swimmer ready unit on March 5, 1985. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Petty Officer 1st Class Dave Lawson)
