The AFM provide a world-class SAR service to mariners, as repeatedly exemplified by the several successful rescues & recoveries of persons in distress out at sea. Their Air Wing & Maritime Squadron are daily on the front line of the AFM's tasks & remits, & have over the years acquired assets that are better geared towards their overall missions & assignments http://forgallantry.corpidelite.net
