Medal of Bravery

At approximately one a.m. on June 6, 1991, Mr. McIntyre, Mr. Muschamp and Mr. Smylie rescued two people from a burning house in Vancouver, British Columbia. The three men were drawn to the scene by an explosion that had caused one side of the house to collapse. Once they realized that someone was trapped inside the flaming building, they immediately entered under the collapsed roof. Mr. Smylie located a victim among the debris and pulled him to safety while Mr. Muschamp and Mr. McIntyre cleared a path. The victim told them a woman was still inside so Mr. Muschamp and Mr. McIntyre re-entered the burning house. Mr. Muschamp located the woman and pulled her out while Mr. McIntyre cleared away the rubble in their path.
