A FIRM of solicitors is to receive recognition for the support it gave to the Reserve Forces during the war in Iraq last year.
Archers, in Stockton, Teesside, will receive the SaBRE certificate next month from the Lord Lieutenant for County Durham, Sir Paul Nicholson.
Office supervisor Christine Carter, a Territorial Army reservist, was called up in February last year and served as a sergeant with the 252 Provost Company of Military Police for four months on the Kuwait border, and later in the Um Qasr region.
David Collier, managing partner of Archers Solicitors, said: "We were not expecting such an award, but are both delighted and proud to receive such a formal recognition."
