The website is mostly devoted to the OA-10 in its role as a rescue vehicle. A site worth visiting if you are interested in the role of the OA-10 in air-sea rescue.

A brief history of the 3rd from Gulfport, MS to New Guinea, and ultimately to occupied Japan, with an emphasis on the role of the OA-10 and hardly a mention of crash boats. Notice the lack of the word "boat" in the title of either the 2nd, 3rd or 4th Emergency Rescue Squadrons.

The website of the 10th Emergency Rescue Boat Squadron which was based in Alaska during World War II. Includes a history of the unit, mission reports and a scrapbook, which is mostly a memory book.

Multiple families opened their homes to them, almost like unofficial service clubs, where they could hang out and play horseshoes with the local children. In return they would take the kids out on some of the boats. One lady recalled from her childhood that when her family came downstairs one Christmas morning, the men had a roaring fire built in the fireplace for them. In fact, her big sister married one of those crew members. Theirs was one of eight similar marriages that resulted when WWII came to Murrells Inlet.
