If you see lots of commotion at Torrance Beach Thursday morning, relax.

The Coast Guard Air Station Los Angeles will be conducting its annual survival training.

The training will include helicopters.
Crew members will start the drill by entering the approximately 65-degree water and swimming 100 yards to a 6-person life raft, where they will receive training in survival techniques.

Training also will be given on flares and other signaling devices.

About 20 pilots and 40 flight mechanics will participate in the training.
