Eight members of the Britannia Fire Department are back on the job with a spring in their steps.
The long-serving firefighters are re-energized after receiving a Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medal at fire hall #1 in Saskatoon the day before Good Friday.
The medal recipients are Lieutenant David Wallace, Capt. Blair Collins, Capt. Shane Fritsch, Chief John Bexson, firefighter Ian Brett, Capt. Gerald Yaremy and firefighter Dean Loerzel and Deputy Chief Aaron Buckingham.
“I am so proud of our team. Each of these members has over 20 years of service to the RM of Britannia and are exceptional leaders in our hall,” said Buckingham in a statement.
“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.”
