Corporal Scott was deployed with 11 Field Squadron during Operation ARCHER Rotation 1. On July 22, 2006, during an intense firefight near Garmser District Centre, he displayed selflessness and dedication to duty when he left his vehicle to provide first aid to a seriously wounded Afghan police officer. His calm and methodical application of the principles of first aid while under fire directly contributed to saving the police officer’s life. Corporal Scott’s actions at a critical moment contributed to the success of the mission and to the Canadian mandate to assist the Government of Afghanistan.
