HONOLULU - Lt. Catherine Ryan, center, hands out life jackets to Trey Erwin, left, and his younger brother Collin prior to their flight aboard the MH-65 Dolphin helicopter, May 10, 2012.
Crewmembers from Air Station Barbers Point, working closely with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, helped make Trey's wish of flying aboard a Coast Guard helicopter come true. Trey and his family were given a small tour of the facility, met pilots and rescue swimmers and were taken on a flight around Oahu aboard the Dolphin helicopter. After the flight, crewmembers from the air station presented the family with mementos such as T-shirts and challenge coins. The family concluded their visit by having lunch with the air station's commanding officer.
