Answer 3

Coast Guard has Rescue Swimmers.

They are a small group within the U.S. Coast Guard, only about 300 of them servicewide. To join their ranks, candidates must endure physical and mental challenges that rival those facing any potential Army Ranger, Navy SEAL or Air Force pararescueman.

The Coast Guard's rescue swimmers are the brave young men and women who hoist or free-fall from a helicopter into dangerous seas to perform daring rescues.

The rescue swimmer training school here has one of the highest student attrition rates of any special operations school in the military. Roughly 75 students go through the school each year, and fewer than half make it out.

Answer 4

I guess they have a paramedic-rescue swimmer more likely. they are more likely to treat hypothermic people rather than the crash recoveries. I might get it wrong
