A Coast Guard petty officer from Air Station Miami carries a sick child off an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter arriving from Air Station Borinquen, Puerto Rico. The child, suffering from acute appendicitis, was airlifted by the helicopter crew from the town of San Jose de Ocoa in the Dominican Republic. This mountain city was cut off when lashed by a tropical storm that caused severe mudslides and flooding resulting in over 80 deaths.
