Haven't done any SAR in a while so I decided while I had time today to save some virtual lives :)

The title isn't very fitting. "So that others may live" is the motto of USAF PJs. Unless I'm missing something...

PJs use "that others may live" and the USCG (and Navy I think) rescue swimmers kind of took that and ran with it as "so others may live" as an unofficial motto. I guess it's a war of semantics, but from my understanding yes, the PJ's created the saying originally.

Ah, ok. I haven't worked around Navy/ USCG as much as the USAF. Wonderful shots, though.

I can tell you as a USCG Pilot, our PJ's don't use that motto. The USN PJ's do as does the USMC and USAF. The USCG motto Sempar Paratus Always Ready is our universal motto thru out the whole USCG.

Your pics are excellent for SAR Fishing as we call it 8-).
