Biddeford Pool, Maine

     Journey back in time to a cold and stormy late afternoon in November of 1960. The wind is blowing hard, it's raining, the seas are raging with 4-5 foot swells and the Wood Island Lighthouse keeper's two year old child is ill and needs to be transported to the mainland. The Coast Guard is called, but can they get her off the island and back to the mainland in the raging storm?
     The story of Tammy Burnham will make you laugh, cry and gasp in disbelief! Feel the sheer terror of the men who were fearless of a raging ocean and a tiny seaside community that came together to help.
