The Coast Guard rescued a duck hunter and his dog from a marsh near Indian River, Delaware, Monday, Nov. 21, 2016.

A passer-by spotted the man trapped in the marsh, who alerted a local fire department. The marsh proved too shallow for fire department boats, so Coast Guard Sector Delaware Bay dispatched an MH-65 Dolphin rescue helicopter crew to hoist the man and his dog to safety.
