Saturday, November 30, during the Sainte-Barbe ceremonial ceremony on the town hall square, Nicolas Manceau was awarded the firefighters' medal of honor, gold level, rewarding thirty years of service.
It was in March 1994 that the recipient started as a firefighter in the Fougères barracks (Ille-et-Vilaine).
In September 2001, he began his career as a professional firefighter in Laval (Mayenne) before returning to Ille-et-Vilaine to join the Saint-Georges barracks in Rennes. He then quickly transferred to the Channel to join, in September 2007, the CTA (Alert Processing Center) in Saint-Lô where calls to the firefighters go through before joining me in Avranches, in October 2009
