Coastguards and Lifeboat Crew on Hoy

I think this was a doo; to say goodbye to Commander Erol Bruce before he left Lyness Naval Base; please correct me if I am wrong I am very good at being wrong!!
Some of the people are still around but sadly most are no longer with us.
This time I do know most of them but thought it is an interesting photo.
Do feel free to name them if you have enough space.

Comments:
These informal photographs are so interesting, particularly when viewed using the enlarged version, folks expressions, clothing and the decor gives me a real sense of the period .
