Feb. 26 The Turmoil to the Rescue. Split-in-half Tanker Under Tow.: Seven seamen were taken ashore last night from galf of the split-in-two tanker - the Greek World Concord'. They had been drifting helplessly in the half vessel for more than 30 hours. Thirty five seamen had already been rescued from the stern half. The vessel broke in two during the terrific gale which has been raging in the Irish Sea. The stern half of the World Concord was taken in tow by the famous tug Turmoil'. Photo shows the scene as the Turmoil tows the stern half of the World Concord off Pembrokeshire
