3 Bird Boats M847 Flamingo, M872 Black Duck and M848 Heron they were we used at the Marine Rescue Section in Comox, BC (1977). The Section was run and manned by naval personnel and civilians all ex RCAF. This was prior to the standing up of the Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary Station Comox and in addition to working air force requirements we were used for all marine rescues in the area. I was there from 1977 to 1980 it was a great posting.
