Former St Mary’s College student Runcie Dookeran has been awarded the US Navy and Marine Corps Commendation medal from the Department of the Navy. “He was selected to work the front desk while maintaining his primary duty as a chair side assistant and instantly became the recognised expert in front desk procedures. Dookeran, who left T&T in 2006 to join the US Navy, was cited recently for assisting in the treatment of over 1,400 marines and sailors, an effort which yielded over US$50,000. ” Dookeran is the son of Bertram and the late Leela Dookeran of Mount Hope. “While assigned to Osbourne Branch Dental Clinic, petty officer Dookeran displayed the initiative of a seasoned officer,” stated the citation. The citation continued: “Dookeran’s can/will do attitude and exceptional work ethic and genuine concern for the needs of his command reflect his natural talent as a true leader.Source: Trinidad Guardian
