Medal of Bravery
On November 14, 2012, Jeremy Olson and his father, Sigurd Olson, rescued their 85-year-old neighbour who had fallen through the ice on Lake Wabigoon, in Dryden, Ontario. They pushed a canoe to the scene and got the victim to climb into it. After falling in the water themselves, the father and son finally managed to get out of their precarious position and bring the victim to safety.
