1904 USLLS Gold Medal
Historically, the USLSS Life Saving Medal is issued and awarded in two grades, being Silver or Gold:
“The Gold Life Saving Medal may be awarded to an individual who performed a rescue or attempted rescue at the risk of his or her own life, and demonstrates extreme and heroic daring.”
At the USLLS Quogue Station, both Surfman Frank D. Warner and Surfman William F. Halsey were awarded Gold Medals in “recognition of gallant conduct in saving life at the wreck of the Schooner Augustus Hunt, which occurred on January 23, 1904”.
