Every once in a while, we’re reminded why our work matters.

Recently, 14 mariners were rescued in the Arabian Sea after their vessel began sinking. Upon receiving a distress call from the stranded mariners at approximately 2 a.m. EST, a U.S. Navy P-8 aircraft was first on scene, responded by dropping a UNI-PAC III search and rescue kit that included a life raft, which the 14 mariners boarded.
We’re incredibly proud that a system designed, manufactured, and sustained by LSI played a role in helping bring 14 people home safely.
For our team, this is what it’s all about. Behind every product, every repair, every engineering review, and every quality inspection is a simple purpose: protecting lives when it matters most.
Congratulations to the U.S. Navy 5th Fleet, aircrew, rescue forces, and merchant mariners whose professionalism made this rescue possible. And Congratulations to the entire Life Support International Inc team for continuing to push the boundaries of design, development and sustainment of life saving equipment.
Mission accomplished. Fourteen lives saved.
