Acknowledgements & Credits

 
 

I am indebted to the many ex-Waterguard colleagues and others, both with a Customs background or a general interest in the history of HM Coastguard and the Preventive Waterguard, who have taken the trouble to contribute facts and opinions, material, photographs and graphics for this site, as well as 'links' to other web sites with a similar interest. I also owe a debt of gratitude to Eric Preedy and all those others who have acted unwittingly as 'editors' for the site and alerting me to spelling mistakes and other grammatical errors . . . . .

In particular I'd like to thank Jim Burry PO (deceased) for the original design of the flag motif used as the site Logo and:

 
     
     
 

For access to their

memories

For access to books

documents and forms

For access to photographs

& other graphic images

For access to equipment stores & tools etc

For permission to reproduce their copyrighted material

For their general help and assistance
