The 25-year-old Royal military policeman from Shavington, Cheshire, who has served with the Garrison in Hong Kong since April last year, will receive the Queen's Commendation for Bravery from Commander British Forces Major General Bryan Dutton.
The citation in the commendation says Corporal Andrews: "demonstrated exceptional calmness, courage and bravery in arresting three dangerous criminals. His exemplary conduct and dedication to duty in an extremely dangerous and apparently life-threatening situation are most worthy of official recognition."
