Video – SARTECS Training Along Lakeshore in Cobourg

In Local

Members of the Canadian Coast Guard, along with CFB Trenton 424 Squadron were training along the lakeshore in Cobourg on Thursday November 21, 2024.

A number of SARTECS (Search and Rescue Technicians) parachuted from a C-130 Hercules aircraft and landed on the west beach in Cobourg.

Shortly after a Griffon helicopter hoisted the SARTECS shortly after while a number of people walking along the pathway got a first hand and up-close look at the exercise.
