And did you hear-see how these 18 were first found? By a passing USCG helicopter on a training mission out of Detroit, who spotted 18 pairs of arms signaling for HELP! Next time wait for using our Lake Erie for a different sport instead of snowmobiling, like swimming. 13 ABC-TV has this GREAT rescue story of a joint operation HERE where even civilians helped out for the safe return of these 18 back to land. You stay off the ice, have a great day & thanks for stopping by.
