Today, @SLSAustralia & @Westpac proudly celebrate 50 years of the Westpac Lifesaver Rescue Helicopter Service. Over the last 5 decades, more than 100,000 missions have been performed, with no one ever having to pay to be rescued.

26-year senior crew member Bruce Hosking is tasked with commanding missions, managing protocol in critical emergencies and mentoring his team. But it’s the lived experiences of keeping our coastlines safe that are the driving force behind the dedication of the crew.
