Thumbs up

Shiner is one of those very brave men who puts his neck on the line "routinely" when there is a job to be done.

He has been doing it for quite a few years now I recall he had to jump into the sea with another SAR crewman past the still turning screws of a ship that was on its final plunge AFTER they had rescued all on board , that was about 12yrs ago when he was on Culdose SAR duty with the RN.

I am very pleased to see that now and again these individuals get the recognition they deserve, they can never be paid enough for what they do!

Good on yer Shiner!
