United Space Alliance workers on board the Freedom Star, one of the Shuttle Rocket Booster retrieval ships, release a distressed lobster diver to an Air Care Team from Orlando for transfer to a hospital. The ship and its dive team, including a diver medical technician, Andy Fish, were instrumental in rescuing the diver off Cape Canaveral Sept. 11. The ship was on a certification exercise and near the location of a lobster diving boat that radioed the U.S. Coast Guard for help when one of the divers experienced difficulty breathing on his return to the surface. Hearing the call for help, the captain of the Freedom Star offered to help. Fish stayed with the diver in the recompression chamber aboard the Freedom Star until the ship reached Port Canaveral where a KSC Occupational Health doctor waited. The diver was stabilized and then taken to Florida Hospital.
