Larry Green had a few anxious moments.
Green's son is stationed at Coast Guard Mobile- he's a flight mechanic and often flies the H-65.
When Green heard about the crash in Mobile Bay, he panicked. His son works the nightshift at times but recently moved to a dayside shift.
Green finally got a text message from his son- the best text message he's ever gotten- his son was okay and not involved in the crash.
Green says his son is now part of the chopper recovery team, responsible for collecting debris and parts of the aircraft.
