Chapter President Edmund Davidson awarded Craigsville VA Officer Corey Wood with the SAR Life Saving Medal on August 6 at the Craigsville Town Hall (see photo below)..
On June 6, 2020, Officer Wood, on his own, searched for and rescued two children from a car that had plummeted into a ravine. Tragically, the mother of the two children did not survive the accident. Submitted by Edmund Davidson.

This was a remarkable effort by this young man, on his own to walk those backroads until he found the kids about 18 hours later.

I have a copy of the photo of Chief Corey Wood with the two children in his arms, but no way to post it.
