Recipients were: · Captain Doug Andrews · Captain Doug Hewitt · Captain Steve McKnight · Acting Captain Doug Ferguson · Safety Specialist Bruce Lewis · Safety Officer John Pickett · Captain David Ford · Captain Bill McGilloway · Firefighter Lyle Prueter The medal, first awarded in 1971, is an expression of public appreciation for the dedication and hard work of Ontario firefighters.
