SUMMARY:Lantern Tour Friday\, March 22nd
DESCRIPTION:Into the Burning Sea - The Greatest Coast Guard Rescue in American History\nPresented by Kevin Duffus\nFebruary 18\, 2024 at 2:00pm\nat Orringer Auditorium\nThe British tanker\, Mirlo\, loaded with nearly 300\,000 gallons of aviation fuel was 5 miles east of the Outer Banks village of Rodanthe on August 16\, 1918\, when it was torpedoed. Duffus describes the unimaginable ordeal endured by six courageous Coast Guardsmen in a small motor lifeboat as they imperiled their own lives by entering a hellish and deadly inferno of explosions and toxic fumes and navigating a confusing maze of swirling black smoke to rescue strangers in distress. It was a day when American lifesaving history was made. In an emotional “coda” to the Mirlo story\, three years after his book was published Duffus received an amazing letter from a woman in England named Mirlo\, the granddaughter of the third officer of the tanker whose personal eyewitness account in a series of letters revealed a previously unknown and astonishing perspective of the catastrophe. When Duffus reads the heart-wrenching letters of the British sailor and his granddaughter\, the lessons of history and the true essence of the lifesavers’ legacy becomes evident. \n\n	\n\n\n\n			\n	\n	\n		\n	\n					\n					\n	\n	\n\n\n\n	\n		\n	\n\n\n	\n								\n		\n\n			\n	\n	\n		\n	Be sure to check your spam folder for your "Event Reservation" email!
