He swam ashore on his back with both girls on either side and landed them safely after a desperate struggle witnessed by hundreds. Bender used his beach experience to save them after discovering Berkeley first and then discovering Kelley. Both girls recovered after an hour of resuscitation and praised Bender for his heroism. Bender has 10 rescues this season and 21 last year.
