full story
The US Navy destroyer Oscar Austin helped 2 Iranians who were left afloat in the Persian Gulf. A merchant vessel spotted the 2 sailors about 1,000 miles outside of Iranian controlled waters and launched a flare. The Oscar Austin responded to the signal. The Oscar Austin also towed the sailors closer to the destroyer so that they could provide food and water to the sailors. The sailors said that their ship had sunk the night before and that part of their crew was missing. The Iranian Coast Guard came to retrieve the sailors and thanked the US Navy for its efforts.
