Yesterday a member of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) who support the Royal Navy unfortunately was lost overboard whilst operating in the Irish Sea. The search has now been called off & you’ve got to say in temperatures & conditions like we’ve had yesterday and today it’s almost impossible for them to have survived even with the right gear worn. It does highlight how dangerous it is to serve in any of our forces and that even in “peacetime” they put their lives on the line to keep us safe. RIP sailor 🌊⚓️
