The successful rescue of the 12 boys and their football coach from the cave in Thailand has brought out the tributes from all corners of the internet:

The mission involved Thai Navy Seals, foreign divers, and medical personnel, all of who worked tirelessly to guide the 13 people out of 4km of flooded and pitch dark caves.

To recognise the heroes, here are the divers who accomplished the feat.

1) Four Thai Navy SEALS

According to BBC, this group consists of three divers and a doctor who volunteered to stay in the caves for days to support the boys.

The doctor's name is Pak Loharnshoon, while the three divers have yet to be identified.

And if you're wondering, "Hooyah" is the Thai Navy SEAL's signature chant.

2) John Volanthen

Volanthen, 47, is an IT consultant from Bristol, Britain.

He is also one of the first two divers who discovered the boys.

Volanthen cave-dives as a hobby and volunteers in rescues through the Cave Rescue Organisation (based in Northern England), South and Mid Wales Cave Rescue, and the British Cave Rescue Council.

3) Richard Stanton

Stanton, 57, is the other British diver who discovered the boys.

The former firefighter of 25 years has been called one of the world's "most accomplished cave-divers".

Prior to the Thai cave rescue, Volanthen and Stanton have already worked together in a number of cave rescue operations.

4) Ben Reymenants

Reymenants is from Belgium and runs a dive shop in Phuket.

As the founder of Blue Label Diving, Reymenants teaches technical diving in Thailand.

BBC reports that he was thought to be part of the group who first found the boys.

5) Erik Brown

Canadian Erik Brown (extreme left in the photo above) is a technical diving instructor from Vancouver.

BBC reports that he began diving over a decade ago, and even co-founded a technical diving school in Egypt.

Even Justin Trudeau expressed his thanks to Brown for his part in the mission:

The Thai cave rescue was a team effort, and I’d like to congratulate and thank Langley’s Erik Brown for stepping up to help get the job done - you’ve made Canadians proud. https://t.co/fMiRvuSs6t

6) Claus Rasmussen

BBC reveals that Rasmussen is a Danish national, but has lived for years in Thailand working at different dive schools.

He is currently an instructor at Reymenants' company, Blue Label Diving.

7) Mikko Paasi

According to BBC, Passi hails from Finland and is the founder of a diving centre on the small Thai island of Koh Tao, where he specialises in wreckage and cave diving.

8) Ivan Karadzic

Karadzic is a Danish national who moved to Koh Tao after Paasi, says BBC.

They now run the diving centre together.

9) Richard Harris

Harris is a doctor from Adelaide, Australia who has decades of diving experience.

Although he trained as an anaesthetist, Harris also specialises in expedition medicine and retrieval operations, BBC writes.

He gave up his holidays in order to assist with the Thai cave rescue.

BBC also reports that he assessed the boys to make sure that they were fit enough to make the journey out before the mission commenced.

Volunteers

In addition to these divers, over 1,000 experts and volunteers, many of who whom have been unnamed, worked together to aid the rescue.

These includes local and foreign experts, farmers, cooks, small time business owners, and more.

And never forgetting Saman Gunan, a former Navy SEAL who lost his life while placing oxygen tanks in the caves.
