Air-sea rescue in World War Two : a first-hand account of the Royal Navy North Sea rescue motor launches

"This book gives a true personal account of the many rescues and other operations carried out by the 69th RML Flotilla in the North Sea from 1943 to 1945. It is based on the log of the flotilla leader, HMRML 547, on signals and reports preserved by its Senior Officer, Lieutenant T D Andrews RNVR and the recollections of members of the crews. Extensive research has been carried out to discover the stories behind the rescues, linking the experiences of the airmen concerned to those of the rescuers."--Provided by the publisher.
