Over 100 water rescues were made yesterday while double red flags were flying making it one of the busiest days on record for rescues.

The body of a missing man was pulled from the water about 10 o'clock Sunday morning near the carousel area of Laguna Beach where he went missing Saturday.

The body of 21 year old Pierre E. Allen of Water Valley, Mississippi, was found about 100 yards off shore. Authorities believe Allen was trying and save a distressed swimmer when he became distressed himself.

The swimmer he was trying to help was brought to shore by rescue personnel. But Allen disappeared in the gulf.

The search by the Sheriff's office air unit, the Coast Guard, and and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation officers boats continued until dark. His body was recovered at mid-morning Sunday not far from where he was least seen.

Allen was visiting Panama City Beach with friends. He was a paratrooper in the Army, and was stationed at Fort Bragg.

Meanwhile, the body of a second swimmer believed to have drowned this weekend in the gulf has yet to be recovered.
