Description

From right, U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue chats with USDA Forest Service firefighter David Dahlberg, in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 30, 2018. David is being honored for his courageous actions during the historic wildfire season of 2017. On July 8, 2017, David helped rescue 58 children and 24 staff members and counselors trapped at Circle V Ranch Camp by the Whittier Fire in Santa Barbara, CA. David single-handedly worked to fireproof the camp and keep its inhabitants safe until they could all be rescued. Thanks to the efforts of David, the Santa Barbara Fire Department, and the Sheriff's personnel, no one was killed.

“David’s heroic actions in the face of grave danger displayed exceptional character, selflessness, and sound judgement,” Secretary Perdue said. “His story of heroism is just one of many exhibited by the dedicated men and women of the United States Forest Service, who risk their lives to protect our land and people. I am grateful that President Trump is recognizing David’s story of heroism and the excellent work of the Forest Service.” USDA Photo by Lance Cheung.
