This year’s event honoured the Service<br />

placed on the teamwork and dedication<br />
showed by all.<br />
The event began with the presentation<br />
of the Long Service & Good Conduct<br />
medals, and was followed by the<br />
presentation of 12 special awards to<br />
recognise the outstanding efforts and<br />
contributions made by Service personnel<br />
over the past year.<br />
The Individual Achievement Award<br />
which recognises an outstanding individual<br />
achievement, or an individual that has<br />
consistently performed above expectations<br />
throughout the year. This was won by<br />

responsibility, John has managed to find<br />
time to organise and lead the Fire Cadets<br />
programme at Port Talbot Station. John<br />
also provides an excellent link between his<br />
primary employer, TATA, and Command to<br />
enable the Service to create innovative and<br />
unique training exercises on this complex<br />
industrial premises.<br />
