Congratulations are in order - Neil has been awarded an 'Assistant Commissioners Commendation' and further nominated for 'Commissioners Commendation' (the highest award a Police officer can get before the Queen gets involved) for his part in the Police operation at Kings Cross following the July 7th terrorist bombings.
As many of you will know Neil was part of a PSU (Police Support Unit), stationed in London that day as crowd control support (the G8 summit was on at Gleneagles that week and they were anticipating some trouble from anti-capitalists scrotes in London) when they were called to what they were told was a train derailment at Kings Cross. On arrival the PSU was split into it's three 'serials', A, B and C. 111A were cordon control on platforms and above ground at Kings Cross, some of them witnessed the bus bomb in Tavistock Square while performing their duty of trying to evacuate the area. 111B were first to Russell Square and entered the train from that end. 111C was Neil's unit and entered the train to evacuate casualties from the Kings Cross end, Neil had the dubious fortune of being medic for the day so he spent quite a lot of time in the actual carriage. As far as I know from the brief conversation we had the other day everyone in that serial (111C) has been awarded equally so congratulation go out to all of them for an outstanding job. -------------------- "We are number one, all others are number two or lower!" - The Sphinx, Mystery Men

I can only echo the above sentiments; well done Neil on getting some recognition for an awesome job in terrible circumstances.

Awwww, thanks guys......
It was nice to have the support of my friends whilst I dealt with this. You have no idea how important it is to have someone to talk to about these things. A special big thanks to all those that turned out for a drink on July 7th in Cobham with me, I know it wasn't much fun but it was real good to get the support when i needed it most. -------------------- "You do not have to say anything, but anything you do say will be taken down in pencil and changed at a later date to best prove my case."

**UPDATE**
Some of you may have seen the news today on the MET award ceremony at Hendon. I did not get a assistant commissioners commendation, or a commissioners commendation. I was awarded the Comissioners High commendation and, i'm told, have been considered for an honour by the Queen. I believe I'm on the list just after Michael Taitt, for his outstanding work in the preservation of adult movies from the 80's and 90's.... I've tried to scan the certificate thingy but it won't work so I'll quote it for you all.... "The Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis has Highly Commended Police Constable 352ZT/215116 Neil Annals for supreme courage, outstanding professionalism, dedication to duty and compassion when, as a member of Serial 111C, he entered the tunnel to assist victims of the terrorist bombing at Kings Cross, Underground Station on the 7th July 2005." - Sir Ian Blair, Commissioner. The award is not for me, but for all of you that supported me and helped me come to terms with the most challenging day of my life. -------------------- "You do not have to say anything, but anything you do say will be taken down in pencil and changed at a later date to best prove my case."
