Press and Journal - Article - Record-breaking winch operator?s final mission
The UK's longest-serving search-and-rescue winch operator has retired after saving more than 1,000 lives in a distinguished 44-year-career.

In recent years he worked with his son, Kieran jun, a search-and-rescue captain, and the pair signed off in style with three final call-outs in his final weekend.
