Mentoring

Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

A Coast Guard helicopter crew from Air Station Savannah, Ga., rescued a kayaker who became stranded in a muddy marsh near Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, after the tide went out Friday, May 16, 2014. The helicopter crew hoisted the man, who had a medical condition that made it dangerous for him to stay and wait for the tide the come back in, and took him to Hilton Head Hospital.

The 37-year-old man’s brother, who was kayaking with him, called for help about 4 p.m., reporting they were stranded and his brother had a medical condition which put him at risk if he waited there for the tide to come back in. More
