George H.W. Bush rescued at sea during WWII
During an attack against Chichi Jima, a heavily fortified island that Japanese forces used for communications and supplies, Bush’s aircraft, a TBM Avenger, was hit with anti-aircraft fire. Bush’s two crewmembers were killed in the attack.

With the aircraft’s engine on fire, Bush released his payload against his target, which was a radio tower. He then ejected from his aircraft, parachuted into the ocean, and waited on an inflatable raft for four hours. Bush was eventually rescued by the USS Finback, a lifeguard submarine.

World War II Military Newsreel 1943 New Life Raft For U.S. Seamen

The newest thing in life saving equipment a three thousand pound steel raft that floats on either side. Enough concentrated rations are carried to sustain twenty-two men for twenty-one days. A mirror with which to signal for help is part of its equipment. Kept afloat by air filled bulkheads the raft is dropped for a test. Its unsinkable and can't be swamped. Merchant seamen in exposure suits abandon ship and prepare to man their life raft. Quickly they hoist sail, rig a shelter and toss out a smoke signal that goes off when it hits the water. A real life saver for victims of shipwrecks.

This video, The Crossing, explains the details involving the Sept 15, 1944 rescue of over 150 Australian and British POW's in the South China Sea, by US Submarines after the sinking of a couple of Japanese POW "HellShips". Unfortunately, these ships had not been properly marked with any Red Cross flags, and had been sunk by the American Submarines 3 days before.

This Video has two of the rescued POW's reuniting with some of the Sub Sailors that pulled them from the ocean that day.
The dramatic video from the rescue was shot by the Communication Officer of the USS Sealion II, Lt (jg) (ss) Joe (Shorty) Bates.
