Distinguished Bravery Award

Decky Allister has been presented with a Distinguished Conduct Award for his rescue of three of his neighbours from a burning building earlier this year.  Decky had himself just undergone surgery on his had when he pulled a woman and two men from the burning building in the early hours of the morning.  Decky rescued me once from a smokey junior disco, when the smoke machine went wrong.  That was a very trivial episode compared with the life threatening situation he was faced with last May, but I was very pleased to see him.  I was stuck outside on a winter's night with a horde of wee people dressed only in their disco gear.  We are very, very proud of Decky.
