In October of 2020 an explosion rocked Saratoga's capital city of Selkirk followed by another blast after first responders showed up.  The two explosions happening outside a federal building in the city left 81 dead and 293 wounded.  This incident happening in the early afternoon would soon get Shiloh County, a county hours northwest of Selkirk, involved as the terrorists responsible would try to flee to there.  Hours later at night dispatchers received a call involving two suspicious vehicles in an empty lot in Kimberly.  Three deputies initially went to investigate and upon contact came under fire with IEDs thrown at them.  Three more deputies hearing the call for backup soon responded and would arrive to assist.  By the time other deputies got to the scene, minutes later, the firefight was over and four terrorists were dead.  The public would soon label the 6 Deputies to take part in the firefight the Shiloh 6 and they were promptly awarded for their efforts.

The following are the deputies that make up the Shiloh Six and what they were awarded for their actions that night:
