Coast Guard Petty Officer 2nd Class E.J. Richardson, a rescue swimmer from Air Station Houston, warns a group of vacationers about the inherent dangers associated with the San Luis Pass, on the beach of that particular waterway, May 25, 2014. An aircrew has deployed to the pass everyday during Memorial Day weekend to convince people recreating in the area not to swim in the these treacherous waters that claimed four lives around this time last year.
