⚓️ S2 | E3 — YOUR EYES ONLY

A letter marked For Your Eyes Only lands in Sarah’s inbox — and with it, a deeper look into the promises, paperwork, and personalities surrounding IntSAR, the International Sea Air Rescue Service.

This episode uncovers the inner workings of a supposed global humanitarian organisation that aimed to unite nations under one rescue command. But as Sarah follows the trail of official-looking documents, job offers, and private messages, she begins to question: where do the facts end, and the fiction begin?

Through conversations with insiders and veterans who believed in IntSAR’s mission, The BADmiral continues to explore how good people can get swept up in big visions — and why it’s so difficult to spot red flags when you’re already invested.

Peter Cowell was contacted for comment during the production of this series. At the time of publication, no response has been received.

All accounts and opinions in this series are those of the participants, based on their own experiences. Allegations are always attributed to their sources. The story is told in the public interest to understand how trust, belief, and ambition can intertwine.
