webfact Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Chief Petty Officer Khunakorn “Mor Champ” Jariyot. Photo: Thai Rath By Thai Newsroom Reporters CHIEF PETTY OFFICER Khunakorn “Mor Champ” Jariyot had survived strong winds and high tides alongside other sailors after their navy corvette had capsized and sunk Sunday night. Yet hours later the chief petty officer was nowhere to be found among those sailors who had been rescued to safety from the stormy sea in the Gulf of Thailand. CPO Khunakorn, the sole male nurse attached to HTMS 442 Sukhothai which sank 19 nautical miles off Prachuap Khiri Khan, is currently reported one of 23 missing persons following the mishap which has so far claimed six fatalities among a total of 106 crewmembers and marines. Remarkably, CPO Khunakorn had kept his big nursing bag with him, oblivious to the naval survival rule which calls for sailors to weigh as lightly as possible to struggle with high tides and stormy weather in the sea. As a professional, the male nurse was seen carrying his hefty kit despite the circumstances under which he had to float alongside three other sailors as HTMS 442 Sukhothai, deployed since 1987, was slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea.

Popular Post robertson468 Posted December 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2022 A very brave man who went back in to the sea to try and rescue his shipmates. I hope he survives, although by now sadly it is highly unlikely. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
