It is Hard to deal with, but you have to put it in the back of your mind and try not to think about it.
Summer 1995 We were diverted from a Fisheries Patrol to the Key West Straights to pick up Cubans that were attempting to come over to the Florida.. In a weeks time we picked up over a 1000 Cubans. Every Ship out there was picking up that many. When we were returning home, we found a Mother and her baby floating off of North Carolina. Needless to say they had already past away. Though we did save 1000 lives, the lost of the baby hurts still today, 12 years later.
