Rescue Divers are trained emergency responders who operate in dangerous and unpredictable environments, conducting underwater and surface rescues in rivers, oceans, dams, and confined spaces. They often work in zero visibility, strong currents, and hazardous conditions, playing a vital role in saving lives, preserving property and providing emergency medical response
