PJI Canopy Club Association Award of Merit

---

At the 1978 AGM it was decided that the Club should present a Trophy called ‘The PTS Canopy Club Award Of Merit’ to No1PTS to be contested annually by PJIs who were Club members. It was agreed at the suggestion of our then President, Gp Capt John Kilkenny, that the award should be for overall work and that OCPTS should nominate the recipient whose name would be announced at each annual dinner. At the 1991 AGM it was decided that any serving PJI, whether or not a member of the Club, could be eligible for consideration. The winners, so far, have been:
