A Coast Guard Air Station Atlantic City helicopter crew helped fulfill the dream of a Queens boy at Juniper Valley Park in Queens, N.Y., March 24, 2014. Eight-year-old Colin Flood, diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia, is battling his second round of the disease after fighting it off with chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant. An avid fan of shows such as Coast Guard Alaska and the Deadliest Catch, Colin dreamed of being in a Coast Guard helicopter. Due to the serious nature of his condition, Colin could not travel. The NYPD and FDNY closed Juniper Valley Park, located near the Flood's home, so a helicopter could safely land there and Colin could visit it.
