One particular incident during my civilian service at the NLWKN will remain etched in my memory forever. On 6 November 2007, the freighter Duncan Island lost several containers in rough seas off Terschelling. One of the ship's fuel tanks was damaged, resulting in the loss of at least 90 cubic metres of oil as the ship sailed through the coastal waters of Lower Saxony.
