Dame Mary Peters, Her Majesty’s Lord Lieutenant for the County Borough of Belfast, presented Lieutenant Commander McMurran with the Lord Lieutenant’s Certificate for Outstanding Meritorious Service Above and Beyond The Call of Duty – an award which is second in importance only to one presented by Her Majesty The Queen.
The Citation which accompanies his award praises Lieutenant Commander McMurran for twenty three years of volunteer service with the Royal Naval Reserve, ‘during which time he always sought duties beyond his expected remit, such as qualifying as a mountain leader and subsequently organising and leading expeditions. He has been an excellent mentor to junior members of the unit and is an exceptional officer.’
