๐Ÿš Excellent work from AMT3 Meyer! ๐Ÿš

AMT3 recently earned his qualification as a Flight Mechanic. Only a few weeks later, he hoisted two people from an adrift sailing vessel.

Prior to launching on this particular case, he identified binding in the hoist hook while performing a walk-around inspection. AMT3โ€™s attention to detail at 0220 in the morning ensured the safety of all those involved!

AMT3 Meyer, congratulations on your Flight Mechanic qualification, first lives saved, and Eagle Eye recognition! BZ! ๐Ÿ‘

Admiral Karl Schultz and I touched down in Houston with Dawn, Amy and the team this afternoon. We stopped by U.S. Coast Guard Air Station Houston for a meeting with the command and met with some amazing crew members.
After, we headed straight to U.S. Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston for remarks and a discussion at the CO/OIC Conference with some incredible leaders.

Dawn and Amy broke off and took a tour of the Sector, met with the HSWL staff, and unit ombudsman.

Great first day and looking forward to answering more questions at the All Hands tomorrow!
