The U S Treasury plans its 502nd life saving medal since 1874 to helicopter pilot Ted Leopold for aiding Coast Guard seaman Leonard Wisnewski in a dramatic September rescue off the California coast. Wisnewski earned the 501st gold medal for the same event and rescue effort. The medal honors rescuers who risk their lives in water perils, with gold for extreme daring and silver for lesser cases.
