    Multiple individuals wearing red immersion suits (survival suits) are floating together in choppy open water, forming a clustered group. This appears to be a maritime safety drill or training exercise, as the participants are practicing the 'HELP' (Heat Escape Lessening Posture) or group huddle survival technique. The bright red suits are designed for cold-water survival and high visibility rescue operations.

    Mike Rudolph (yellow gloves), a fishing vessel safety examiner from the Coast Guard's Marine Safety Unit Portland, teaches students ways to make themselves easier to be seen from aircraft overhead in Newport, Oregon Mar. 24, 2017. Rudolph, along with three other instructors, just completed an 18-hour drill conductor's course in which they taught local commercial fishermen how to conduct various emergency drills for the crews aboard their own vessels.
