'poor' doesn't seem to do it justice.

A staggering report and a very reminiscent of the Penlee disaster. A true credit to our rescue services.

Where do these men get their stamina, determination, courage and tenacity from? They must be a special breed.

To risk life and limb as they do for complete strangers in horrendous conditions - mostly as a voluntary service (?) - Amazing.

I wonder what their wives had to say when they read the report /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
