TWO CASUALTIES TAKEN OFF TANKER Penlee, Cornwall. At eleven o'clock on the morning of the 5th May, 1962, the honorary secretary was asked if the life-boat could be launched later in the day to bring a sick man and an injured man ashore from the tanker Haminella of London. The honorary secretary agreed, and the life-boat Solomon Browne was launched at five o'clock in the afternoon and made for Newlyn to embark a doctor and a stretcher. There was a moderate west-south-westerly wind and a moderate sea. Visibility was very poor. The life-boat left Newlyn at 5.35 and came alongside the tanker, which was four miles south of Penzance, twenty-five minutes later. The sick man was thought to have a duodenal ulcer, and the other man had injured his back, his head and an arm in a fall on board the tanker. They were both transferred to the life-boat, which landed them at Newlyn at 7.15. A heavy swell prevented the life-boat from being rehoused at Penlee, and she remained at Newlyn until the next day..
