Officials said the men confirmed they were in good health and had access to food and water when their distress message was spotted.
Three men stranded on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean for more than a week were successfully rescued after their message "HELP" written in palm tree fronds was spotted from the sky during a joint rescue operation launched by the U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Navy.
"In a remarkable testament to their will to be found, the mariners spelled out "HELP" on the beach using palm leaves, a crucial factor in their discovery," said Lt. Chelsea Garcia, the search and rescue mission coordinator on the day they were located.
