SOMALIA-PIRACY-US-YEMEN
In this image released by the US Navy, one of three men(R) that were clinging to a piece of wood in the Gulf of Aden is towed by a Navy swimmer to a rigid hull inflatable boat from the guided-missile cruiser USS Chosin (CG 65) on November 17, 2009. The stranded fishermen were rescued by the Chosin after they had been drifting for three days with only a few bottles of water, said a statement from the US Fifth Fleet, which is based in Bahrain. "According to the fishermen, they were left stranded in the water after 12 suspected pirates hijacked their vessel," the statement said. "The fishermen also said that the pirates gave them an ultimatum to either jump overboard with only a wooden plank as a flotation device or be killed."
