The story of The Pea Island Life Saving Station on North Carolina's Outer Banks and the rescue of 9 passengers and crew from the E.S. Newman by Richard Etheridge and crew in 1879; plus stories of life-saving legends Dunbar John Davis (NC) and Capt. Joshua James (Massachusetts).. Etheridge, a former Union soldier and slave who was born on the Outer Banks, was awarded head keeper of the Pea island Life Saving Station, the only all-black life saving facility in the country, and unlike many of  his white counterparts,, his crew was overlooked when medals were given to surfmen who had acted courageously to save lives. Etheridge;s crew's saving of the 9 passengers aboard the storm-tossed E.S. Newman during hurricane conditions was submitted for review recently and the well earned awards were given posthumously. Methods used to save lives are discussed in this story, which you should find interesting.
