'It was supposed to be a fairly short day on the water.' Wife of Florida firefighter who went missing on fishing trip opens up about search operation.
As the desperate search for two firefighters who disappeared during a fishing trip off the coast of Florida continues into its fourth day, the wife of one of the missing men is speaking out about the circumstances surrounding the men's situation.
"It was supposed to be a fairly short day on the water," she said."I gave them until 6 p.m. maybe because the fishing was great. But 6 o'clock, I didn't hear and I still could see that he didn't read my messages – they hadn't even been delivered yet … at 8 p.m. we called the Coast Guard." Also looking for the men were crews from the U.S. Navy, the Florida Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Brevard County Sheriff's Office. The Coast Guard also deployed a C-130 plane to search from the air.
"He was prior military, navy veteran. He has SERE [Search, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape] training, survival training through the navy. Of course, firefighter, paramedic. So he is built to help people. He was a combat medical corpsman during the push through Fallujah so if there is anyone built of an iron man, that's him," said Stephanie McCluney of her husband.
