Medal of Bravery
On December 14, 2006, off-duty firefighter Robert Walker and trucker Daniel Reynolds pulled an elderly woman from a burning vehicle following a two-vehicle collision, in Dundas, Ontario. While Mr. Reynolds attempted to extinguish the flames and struggled to open the driver's badly damaged door, Mr. Walker entered through the rear door, pulled the front seat back, and unbuckled the driver's seat belt. The car was quickly filling up with smoke and flames as Messrs. Walker and Reynolds pulled the woman out and brought her a safe distance away. Unfortunately, the woman did not survive.
