Book excerpt: Indicting U.S. Coast Guard small boat rescue policy and those who fail or refuse to change it, Noble (a former member of the Coast Guard) narrates a 1997 rescue operation which resulted in the death of three members of the rescue team. Noble himself was present at the rescue station on the night of the operation. He relies on his own observations and the words of a number of other officers involved in the case, who collectively suggest that overwork and other easily addressable problems led to the fatalities.
