Palm Coast Fire Department Driver Engineer Chris Strozier was awarded the 2023 Fire Service Commendation and Medal by the Flagler Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution this past Friday, February 17, at Palm Coast Fire Station #21. 

The award is presented annually to an individual who has made outstanding contributions in an area of fire safety and service in protecting human life and property by preventing injuries or casualties due to fire and chemicals. Strozier, a Navy Veteran, just recently celebrated 5 years with the Palm Coast Fire Department, and serves as the C-Shift EMS Field Training Officer, Quartermaster, and leads the department’s Gold Star family honors program.

During the ceremony, Driver Engineer Strozier was joined by his colleagues, including Palm Coast Fire Chief Kyle Berryhill, who echoed the presentation's sentiments. “Driver Engineer Strozier embodies a deep commitment to our community’s wellbeing daily,” Berryhill said. “His efforts are invaluable to our department, and he always leads by example by inspiring those around him to be better.”

The Sons of the American Revolution conducts its awards program annually, including similar commendations for other areas of public service, including law enforcement and emergency medical service personnel. 

The organization is a historical, educational, and patriotic non-profit organization. The Flagler Chapter was organized in 1984, and the members are descendants of those early Americans who served in the Revolutionary War and established the United States.
