This is dedicated to the small band of men who manned the


Crashboats


of the South African Air Force from 1940 to 1969.

Men largely forgotten, if they were ever known, except by the hundreds
who owe their lives to their dedication and selfless service.  Service
rendered to the maritime community around the treacherous coasts of 
South Africa.
