Description

Using a French bowline, which also may be used as a breeches buoy, Scouts show how to remove a person from a damaged or burning structure. In the window (left to right) are LeRoy Odom and Royce Latimer. Edward Stark is the patient descending into the arms of Don Mason (left) and Tom Turner. Edward is wearing a striped robe and trousers. The other scouts are wearing their respective Sea Scout uniforms. All are from the Sea Scout Ship Vampyre of Polytechnic Methodist Church.
