EDITORS COMMENTS
The Mayor of Carmarthen, Mr. W. D. Jones, along with the Deputy Mayor, Mr. M. E Clifford Jones, the Borough Sheriff Alderman John Jenkins, and the Town Clerk, Mr. David Myrddin Thomas warmly welcomed the crew of the Ferryside Lifeboat Caroline Oates Aver and William Maine to their town on 16th August 1951. The lifeboat had made a remarkable journey up the River Towy to reach Carmarthen's quay as part of a flag day event in support of RNLI. This print captures this historic moment when these esteemed officials gathered together to honor and express gratitude towards these brave individuals who risked their lives for others at sea. The image showcases unity between local government representatives and emergency service providers. The visit not only highlighted the importance of lifeboats but also emphasized community spirit and charitable efforts in aid of RNLI. It serves as a reminder that organizations like RNLI rely on public support to carry out their vital rescue missions. Transporting us back to the 1950s era, this photograph encapsulates both maritime history and philanthropy while showcasing picturesque views of Carmarthen Bay in Wales. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints staff members with utmost care, this print allows us to appreciate our past heroes who selflessly dedicated themselves to saving lives at sea.
