The boat can be deployed during any major critical incident involving water when assistance from the KSP Special Operations Branch is requested, including the Special Response Team and the Aircraft Division.

Travel: Puffins share in raising their babies
2026-08-27 - Iceland - Photo by April Shepperd
Writer/Photographer April Shepperd writes, "Mom and Dad Puffins share parental responsibilities and take turns incubating a single egg. Once their chick hatches, the parents dive up to 60 meters several times a day, emerging with a beak full of fish, eel, herring, and other sea creatures to feed the little one. By late August, the Puffins have gone and will remain at sea until the next year. Comments | Permalink
