Coast Guard honours fallen sailor one year after submarine tragedy— body never retrieved

Описание: Coast Guard honours fallen sailor one year after submarine tragedy— body never retrieved

The Trinidad and Tobago Coast Guard on Friday February 20th, 2026, held a solemn memorial service for Able Seaman Keiron Simon, marking one year since he disappeared during a dangerous anti-narcotics operation at sea.

The church parade took place at 10 a.m. at St. Michael and All Angels Anglican Church in Diego Martin, bringing together fellow officers, relatives and supporters in a tribute to the missing serviceman’s dedication and sacrifice.

Simon vanished on the night of February 20, 2025, while participating in an operation targeting a suspected drug-trafficking semi-submersible vessel.

During the exercise, he reportedly entered the craft to conduct a search when it suddenly sank. Another officer managed to escape, but Simon did not resurface.

Despite extensive efforts, his body has not been recovered. The semi-submersible remains on the ocean floor and is believed to still contain his remains.

In previous public appeals, Simon’s family has called for decisive action to retrieve the vessel and bring closure to their loved one’s fate. His brother, Kelvon Simon, said authorities had identified a private company capable of assisting with recovery efforts, but the operation has yet to receive final government approval.

“My brother went missing while in the line of duty. We deserve the truth — and we deserve action,” he said during an earlier interview.

The vessel was reportedly linked to Colombian drug-trafficking suspects who were detained following the operation. While arrests were made, Simon’s disappearance continues to cast a shadow over the case.— Story by I.A.N News
