On Thursday April 6, firefighter David Wallace, Captain Blair Collins, Captain Shane Fritsch, RM of Britannia Councillor Jim Collins, Deputy Chief Aaron Buckingham, Chief John Bexson, firefighter Ian Brett, Captain Gerald Yaremy and firefighter Dean Loerzel received the honour at fire hall Number 1 in Saskatoon.

Not one of these members devotes this much time for recognition, but we are all very humbled to receive this honour and even more excited to receive it together as a group at this ceremony,” said Deputy Chief Aaron Buckingham.
