Although I seldom do it anymore, I have been a scuba diver for most of my life. In 1975, I had the opportunity to dive a cave off the Suwannee River in the Florida Panhandle. That was enough to convince me that cave diving is vastly more difficult and dangerous than regular open water diving. I learned my lesson and never did it again.
Watching the rescue of the Thai boys is spell-binding for me. Already, a Thai Navy Seal has died. While four boys have been rescued, I am praying for the rest and ALSO for the divers. One, cave diving is dangerous enough but, two, working with a kid who may panic at any second represents another major danger to the divers. I hope the boys are somehow tranquilized, for the sake of the divers.
It would be an honor to salute those divers!
