Urgent Medevac Operation in Gulf of Mexico: Crew Member Rescued from Trans Iberia
On July 29, 2013, a critical medical emergency unfolded in the Gulf of Mexico when a crew member from the tanker 'Trans Iberia' required urgent evacuation approximately 30 miles from the Matagorda Jetties. The situation escalated when the 57-year-old man became unconscious, prompting the Coast Guard to utilize a rescue litter—a specialized stretcher adequate for helicopter hoisting. The distress call was initially received by Sector Corpus Christi watchstanders at 4:16 p.m., detailing the serious health concerns of the crew member. After consultation with a Coast Guard flight surgeon, it was determined that the individual was likely experiencing a heart attack and needed immediate transport to medical facilities. The response team quickly mobilized, launching an MH-65 Dolphin rescue helicopter at 5:05 p.m., which arrived on the scene by 5:40 p.m. The ailing crewman was safely hoisted up and subsequently transported to Citizens Medical Center in Victoria for emergency care. This swift and effective response is a testament to the dedication and expertise of the Coast Guard in critical situations at sea.
