A 20-year veteran of the Evansville Fire Department got a top honor.
The Green River Kiwanis Club chose Greg Russell as Evansville's Firefighter of the Year.
He received a wall plaque, a $250 savings bond and his picture and accomplishments on a billboard.
However, Russell wasn't at the awards ceremony because he is in Georgia training troops on their way to Iraq.
He is the 27th Evansville firefighter to receive the award.
