I have a picture of a relative, who served on one of these boats, manning some sort of machine gun. I am not sure when this rescue service was established, but my relative was in it from c1942.

I used to be the East Anglian Branch Secretary of the ASR Rescue and Marine Craft Services Club. Most of the members were the wartime boys and the stories they told were fantastic!

I will post photos of the various boats used by the ASR/MCS. [/b]

Do you have any information on individual boats in WW2? In one of the photos of my relative you can see the number.

Also, do you have details of the London branch of the ASR Rescue and Marine Craft Services Club? I would like to pass on details to my relative, who is now in his 80s. As far as I know he is not a member of this organisation.

if you send me the number, then I might be able toi dig up some stuff. Dudley Thompson who sadly died could have given the names of the entire crew. His memory of the boats was encyclopedic.

i will dig out the secretaries address as london does not have a regular meeting. There is a reunion in the Union Jack club in sep/oct time.

I have just scanned the photo, and will send it to the email address given. The boat is No. 125.

My relative is the guy with his head through the ring, actually he is my fathers 1st cousin and was born in 1922.

I can tell from the number that it is a "whaleback" Did your relative know a Flt lt Guiness? he was the then heir to the family fortune and a Marine branch officer. I am sure 125 was part of his unit.
