A rescue swimmer is lowered from a Canadian air force helicopter down to U.S. Coast Guard Station Eastport, Maine's 41-foot boat during a search and rescue drill off Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Aug. 25. Personnel from U.S. Coast Guard Station Eastport, Maine, and men and women from the Canadian coast guard and air force and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police worked together Aug. 25 and 26 to respond to several simulated distress calls as part of their annual training together. Station Eastport is the most northeastern Coast Guard unit in the continental United States, located at the border of the U.S. and Canada, and periodically works with Canadian authorities during search and rescue cases.
