The Milford Museum American History Series continues on Saturday, August 9, 1:00 p.m. at the Milford Public Library with a program titled Storm Warriors: The U.S. Life-Saving Service in Delaware. Before the Coast Guard existed, the brave men of the United States Life-Saving Service battled winds and waves to rescue sailors in distress. Six life-saving stations existed in Delaware and responded to hundreds of wrecks along the coast. Join Delaware Seashore State Park Interpretive Programs Manager Tyler Dreiblatt to discover how they started, how they operated, and what became of them, while also hearing some shipwreck stories!
