ffairlane needs some compassion, why are you even at this website. The capt. was injured and below decks. A Coastie attempted to get him out and drowned, body recovered hours later. I served with other Coasties that were there.

Captains going down with their ships made many 1800s adventure novels exciting. Of course few 'real' captains were ever dumb enough to do so. If they were they seldom lived long enough to become a captain. They would typically trip over a empty rum bottle and break their neck on the way to the potty after a night of being...brave and heroic. LOL

@LEDETCoastie Leaving a sinking ship maybe cowardice but your alive to live another day. I'd rather be a live coward than a dead hero! I understand the fate of the rescue swimmer, but that's the rate he or she chose. It comes with certain risks. I spent 20 yrs. between the Navy & CG. I chose a safer way of life, I don't regret it as I'm here to tell the tale.

@LEDETCoastie , because it's called honor. It's the right and manly thing to do when your ship sinks. leaving your ship while it sinks is cowardice.

Even if everyone makes it off safely, the captain should still go down with the ship for being such a fool.

Holy crap! I JUST read about this as a case study for my BM A school. RIP to everyone that didn't make it home that day.

The reason the video just stops is the 47200 went to the aid of the people in the water. F/V Sea King was under tow by the 52314 Triumph. The 47200 was out doing tests. It was a sad day when we lost Ruddy. Cape Disappointment Station is also home to the National Motor Life Boat school. (Two different duty stations).

Oh well....ships sink, that's just the way it is.
it's the captain's job to make sure evereyone else is safely rescued...even if he has to go down with the ship.
