This was an interesting book in as much as it is the first I have read on the RAF Air Sea Rescue service. The action is good but much of the book, which only covers about 24 hours, is nothing more than crew members and aircraft survivors talking and the RAF Group Captain's problems with one of his junior officers.

In the final days of the second world war, a British aircraft is shot down over the cold North Sea. Her crew, carrying vital information, huddle in a tiny raft, anxiously scanning the horizon for friend or foe.

"The Sea Shall Not Have Them" is the story of the Royal Air Force's Air-Sea Rescue Service, a little known group that rescued thousands of downed airmen from the elements and the enemy. In small, high-speed launches, these sailors in RAF blue performed a gallant but none too glamorous service, recorded here by one of their own, author John Harris.
