Operational Honours awarded for service at home and overseas

by Proud Friday, May. 02, 2003 at 9:36 AM

Honours were awarded on 29 April 2003 to British Service personnel for gallantry and distinguished service in a wide range of operations performed around the world during the period April 2002 to September 2002, including operations in Afghanistan.

Brigadier Roger Lane is awarded the CBE for his outstanding command of the Task Force comprising soldiers, Royal Marines and airmen on Operation Jacana in Afghanistan. The force was required to operate in an area of extreme physical conditions and the demands placed upon him were unequalled. He led his formation with utmost integrity and skill displaying great moral courage and fortitude.

Wing Commander Sean Reynolds is awarded the OBE for his role in commanding the Joint Helicopter Command Group which supported 3 Commando Brigade on Operation Jacana. His leadership and airmanship were outstanding and he consistently provided air support in the harshest of conditions.

Marine Liam Armstrong is the most junior rank to be awarded the Military Cross. As a Heavy Machine Gunner in 45 Commando, he was involved in an incident in Afghanistan that exposed a 45-ton cache of weapons and explosives. He showed exemplary bravery in disarming nine armed men and initiative well beyond that expected for his rank and service.

Staff Sergeant Mark Doyle is awarded the George Medal for his conspicuous bravery over a thirty-hour period in which he handled explosives from the site of an explosives incident at Royal Ordnance Factory Bridgewater in July 2002, thereby preventing loss of life and considerable collateral damage. Captain Neil Joynes was also recognised for his bravery in this incident by the award of the Queen's Gallantry Medal.
