On Sunday, April 19th, four members of the Salisbury Fire Department were honored with the Chief Leonard T. King, Sr. Medal of Valor by the Maryland Fire Chiefs Association at their annual awards ceremony on Kent Island.
This prestigious award recognizes Maryland fire, rescue, and/or EMS providers who, at great personal risk, have saved or attempted to save a human life during an extreme emergency within the past year. Recipients must distinguish themselves through extraordinary courage, self‑sacrifice, and actions performed above and beyond the normal call of duty—while maintaining the highest standards of safety and professionalism.
Please join us in congratulating and celebrating this year’s honorees:
• Lt. Andrew Merrill
• MPO/Sgt. Mike Ozman
• FF/PM Corey Dean
• FF/EMT Thomas Moore, Jr.
Their bravery, dedication, and service exemplify the very best of the fire service. We are proud to have them serving our community!
