HONOURS

NSW Fire Brigades Medal for Conspicuous Bravery

 

The NSW Fire Brigades Medal for Conspicuous Bravery was instituted in 1932 and is the highest honour which can be awarded by the NSWFB to recognise acts of conspicuous bravery by a firefighter.  To date, the Medal has been awarded to 25 recipients, two posthumously.

 

The Commissioner has approved the award of the Medal to Station Officer John Carlos Henry for his actions at a townhouse fire in Kingswood on Wednesday, 26 July 2006.

 

At 0830 hours on Wednesday, 26 July 2006, while off duty, Station Officer Henry was dropping his children at school when he observed smoke issuing from the windows of a nearby townhouse in Park Avenue, Kingswood.

 

Station Officer Henry immediately rushed to the scene and together with two passing NSW Police Officers, Constables Matt McDougall and Kyle Rodger, attempted to enter the residence through the front entrance to rescue a child who they were told was trapped in a first floor bedroom.  Intense heat and smoke had already driven the child’s father, Mr David Jameson, from the residence with burns to his face and hands.  The hostile conditions inside the burning townhouse also forced Station Officer Henry and the Police to retreat.  Station Officer Henry and Constable McDougall then climbed onto the roof immediately underneath a window to the bedroom where the child was believed to be trapped.  Constable McDougall broke the window with his baton and, despite not knowing the structural stability of the room and without any concern for his own safety, Station Officer Henry climbed through the window to search for the child.  Under horrendous conditions, including a collapsing ceiling and in total darkness, Station Officer Henry conducted a search of the smoke filled room and located the unconscious child, Tyler Jameson, in a corner.  Station Officer Henry then carried Tyler back to the window and passed him to Constable McDougall who was waiting on the roof.

 

The New South Wales Fire Brigades recognises Station Officer John Carlos Henry’s conspicuous bravery, which was in the finest tradition of the service.
