EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by O' Beirne, we are transported back to the summer of 1996 at the Porthcawl RNLI Station. The image showcases three determined young boys, Christopher Missen, Ross Purchase, and Joseph Missen, as they eagerly try out the new Atlantic 75 Lifeboat. These courageous youngsters aspire to follow in the footsteps of their fathers who serve in the emergency services. The picture captures a moment filled with dreams and aspirations. The boys' eyes gleam with excitement as they take hold of the lifeboat's steering wheel, ready to embark on an adventure that could shape their future careers. Their youthful enthusiasm is palpable against the backdrop of this powerful vessel designed for rescue missions at sea. This snapshot not only highlights these brave children but also pays tribute to all those who dedicate their lives to saving others. It serves as a reminder of the vital role played by organizations like RNLI in ensuring maritime safety and protecting lives on treacherous waters. O' Beirne's expert composition allows us to feel a sense of awe towards these young heroes-in-training while simultaneously acknowledging their innocence and vulnerability. This photograph encapsulates both hope for what lies ahead and gratitude for those who selflessly serve our communities. As we gaze upon this nostalgic scene from two decades ago, it reminds us that even during uncertain times, there will always be individuals willing to step up and face challenges head-on – just like Christopher Missen, Ross Purchase, and Joseph Missen
