A Coast Guard aircrew, aboard an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter from Sector North Bend, medically evacuated an injured logger after he was struck by a tree, 17 miles east of Coos Bay, on Coos Mountain, Dec. 21, 3019.

The 37-year-old logger had been conducting logging operations when the top of a tree-length reportedly sprung from tension and struck him in the head and torso.
