The Pendleton Rescue

The Pendleton Rescue In-Person


Join Coast Guard Auxiliary member Reid Oslin for a presentation about the four courageous crew members of the U.S. Coast Guard Station Chatham who launched a 36-foot wooden motor lifeboat into the teeth of a raging Nor’east storm to rescue sailors stranded on a stricken tanker, SS PENDLETON. This fascinating story was the subject of the best-selling book The Finest Hours, which was made into a feature film of the same name.
