President’s Commendations
Friday 18th November 2016The President’s Commendation has recently been awarded to:
Marcus Faulkner – 74th Belfast
On 12th September 2016, David Blevins, Brigade Vice President, presented Marcus Faulkner with his President’s Commendation. Although Marcus was born with Cerebral Palsy he fully participates in all aspects of the Junior Section programme, for example, games, marching, model-making, crafts and attending outings/events including caving, archery, ten-pin bowling and football. He recently broke his femur and in spite of being confined to a wheelchair for three months he still attended BB and took part in all the activities. Unfortunately Marcus then suffered a further break which required operations and blood transfusions. He nearly didn’t survive. Marcus has been an inspiration to all the young people and staff over the years. He does everything with a smile and is naturally competitive.
