Rescue operationPacific IslandU.S. Coast GuardThree men stranded on a remote Pacific island were rescued by the U.S. Coast Guard after spelling out 'HELP' with palm leaves.
The men, lost for over a week, were discovered on Pikelot Island, Micronesia, with a damaged boat, after setting sail from Polowat Atoll. Their rescue involved a U.S. Navy aircraft crew who found them due to the 'HELP' sign, initiated by a distress call from a relative.
