An MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew from Air Station Kodiak, Alaska, hoists three people and two dogs Saturday, June 5, 2021, after their flamingo-shaped raft drifted across Monashka Bay and up against offshore rocks. Alaska State Troopers and the Coast Guard worked together to determine that due to the treacherous circumstances, a helicopter hoist was the safest rescue option.
