I want to be a boatswains mate in the US Coast Guard. Going to boot camp soon. But i also want to be a rescue swimmer. I want to save lives. I once read that there are rescue swimmers that are on boats? And they are called boat-based rescue swimmers. Is this real? If so, can the boatswains mate be the rescue swimmer?
Please tell me anything you know about a boat-based rescue swimmer (if its real).
Thanks
 
There is a Rescue Boat unit under the Golden Gate Bridge on old Fort Baker, Sausalito. They head out in those little pontoon like skiffs
