THE RCMP honoured 40 of its best in a ceremony at Lower Fort Garry Wednesday.
Most of the award recipients celebrated between 20 and 35 years of service, but two Mounties received coveted Bravery Awards.
Const. Kevin Bernier was recognized for coming to the aid of woman who was being attacked by a man on Aug. 11, 2011 in The Pas.
Bernier was off-duty when he subdued the man and kept the victim at the scene until other Mounties arrived.
Const. Gilles Gravelle was recognized for saving a young woman who had walked into the flooded Saskatchewan River in The Pas on July 23, 2011. He was wearing his full duty belt and had no flotation device.
He administered CPR to the woman until assistance arrived. She survived.
