Pulled Together East Hampton January 7, 2012 Dear David, A search-and-recovery operation does not just happen. We have well-trained people in the Springs Fire Department and East Hampton Town police and Sag Harbor dive teams. There were many rescuers on the water recently, and we should be proud of them all. But at this point I would like to talk about our marine patrol, dive team, and ocean rescue team. Training that does not fall short when the emergency hits is not to be taken for granted.
