Courageous countdown: No. 10

East Bernstadt, KY, Rural Carrier Associate Joshua Murray

Link is looking back at the year in “Heroes’ Corner” with a countdown of the 10 most-viewed articles.

Coming in at No. 10 is “Dramatic roll,” the story of Joshua Murray.

The rural carrier associate was making deliveries in East Bernstadt, KY, when he saw an older customer chasing after her vehicle, which was rolling away from her.

In the process, the woman fell under it.

Murray sprang into action, safely got into the vehicle and brought it to a stop, allowing the customer to be extricated with only minor injuries.

If you know of heroic colleagues like Murray, the Postal Service wants to know about them, too.

Employees recognized through the Postmaster General Heroes’ Program must be nominated for the award. Corporate Communications reviews nominations for accuracy, then sends them to the Postal Inspection Service and the Office of Inspector General for approval.

Following approval, each nominee receives a commendation letter from Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.

Honorees are also featured in Link’s “Heroes’ Corner” column.

To nominate an employee, complete PS Form 400, Corporate Communications PMG Hero Nomination, and email it to PMG_HeroNominations@usps.gov.
