Prince William's New Year's plans were probably always
going to be more impressive than yours. Turns out, they were probably a bit
more heroic, too.
That's because Kate
Middleton's future baby daddy spent the first day of 2013 piloting a
search-and-rescue mission off the coast of England.
The coast guard confirmed to the BBC
that while on duty for the Royal Air Force, Wills was called upon to pilot the
RAF Sea King helicopter that was sent out to search for a 41-year-old Blackpool
man who, while walking his dog along the coastline during gale-force winds, was
swept to sea in the early morning hours of Jan. 1.
The royally manned helicopter provided the lighting
necessary for the search teams to scan the surrounding waters off the coast of
the Irish Sea. The mission lasted approximately 90 minutes.
