Crewman credited with saving lives as fishing boat sank

A 28-year-old fisherman from outside Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, recently saved the lives of two Americans and helped rescue five others after the fishing vessel he was working on sank hundreds of miles northeast of Hawaii's Big Island. But Khanh Huynh isn't a commercial fishing boat captain. He works 12- to 20-hour days for less than $10,000 a year in one of the most dangerous occupations in the U.S. See photos.
