Medal of Bravery
On July 6, 2011, Carly Nikirk rescued a woman from a possible drowning, off the coast of Texada Island, British Columbia. Despite the strong current and the high waves, Ms. Nikirk pulled the victim to a nearby buoy until two men arrived in a small boat and brought them back closer to shore.
