Staff Reports
The United States Coast Guard is on a mission to find four missing divers who disappeared off the coast of North Carolina. These brave men were diving from a pleasure craft called Big Bill’s when they went missing. It’s been hours since they were last seen, and night has fallen, adding to the urgency of the search.
This is a serious situation, and the Coast Guard is not taking it lightly. They have deployed a number of assets to assist in the rescue effort. From helicopters to aircraft crews to motor lifeboats, they are pulling out all the stops to bring these divers back home safely. They have even called in the Coast Guard Cutter Sailfish and the Coast Guard Cutter Yellowfin, both 87-foot patrol boats.
Four divers were found and rescued about 50 miles off the coast of Cape Fear, North Carolina, after going missing on Sunday, the U.S. Coast Guard said.
Crews had been searching for the divers since at least Sunday night. https://t.co/8Q2U97tFDm

It’s heartening to see the Coast Guard’s dedication and commitment to saving lives. They have mobilized resources from multiple states, including North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, and New Jersey. All hands are on deck to locate these missing divers.
As the night goes on, the search will continue, and the Coast Guard will not rest until they find these men. Let’s hope and pray for a successful rescue operation and for these divers to be reunited with their families soon.
