“Unarmed and facing unimaginable danger, 53-year-old volunteer security guard Andrew Franks put his life on the line to save hundreds of lives. When a knife-wielding terrorist attacked the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation synagogue in Manchester, Andrew bravely confronted the attacker outside. Despite suffering severe injuries, he managed to trip the assailant and shout to the congregation inside to lock and barricade the doors—buying them vital time before police arrived. Andrew survived after undergoing lifesaving surgery, and his selfless heroism saved countless lives.”
