Coast Guard Miracles of New Orleans

With disaster preparedness of paramount importance, it's time to take a deeper look at what went very right before, during, and after Hurricane Katrina. Unlike the woefully unprepared civilian population, the Coast Guard was staged and ready. The unprecedented surface rescue put into action by the brave men and women under CAPT Robert Mueller's command took place with little fanfare, yet their actions saved the lives of more than thirty thousand people.
