no matter your position on immigration, people are dying in the desert trying to come to the US

I was watching news on Univision last night and caught the tail end of a story about some Arizona pilots who patrol the desert and drop bottles of water via small parachutes to people wandering the desert with instructions on how to signal the pilots if they are in distress. Authorities are contacted if the people are in distress.

Capt. Mike: do you know those guys?

no not really
