The image shows Ben, clad in a woolly jumper and a distinctive hat, proudly wearing two medals pinned to his chest. These decorations are a testament to his exceptional bravery and commitment to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), an organization that has been providing essential rescue services along the British coastline since 1824. Ben Dale's tenure as Coxswain of the Harwich lifeboat station spanned an impressive 23 years, during which he led numerous daring rescues in treacherous conditions. His unwavering dedication to the RNLI and his community earned him the respect and admiration of all who knew him.

This photograph is an invaluable historical record of a bygone era, and it serves as a poignant reminder of the vital role that the RNLI continues to play in keeping our coastlines safe.
