Right place at the right time.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The wife of the nation\u2019s highest-ranking military officer saved the life of man during a Veterans Day event at the Arlington National Cemetery on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Hollyanne Milley \u2014 a practicing nurse married to Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff \u2014 was attending the ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier when she heard groaning behind her. It was just after the ceremonial wreath had been placed and before President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and Secretary of Veterans Affairs Robert Wilkie appeared.<\/p>\n<p>Milley can be seen on video closing her umbrella and walking toward the sound about a minute and a half after a man in a dark suit is seen uneasily walking up the stairs, bracing himself on the marble as he went. Once at the top of the stairs, he kneeled behind a column at the eastern entrance of the Memorial Amphitheater, near where the ceremony was taking place.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement emailed to Military Times on Saturday, Milley said she heard \u201ca little commotion\u201d behind her and she went to see if she could help.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I first got there, he was breathing in a very erratic way that he wasn\u2019t really taking air into his lungs as he should have been,\u201d Milley said. \u201cAnd then he stopped breathing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Milley checked his pulse and it was flat, so she told an onlooker to call 911 before beginning CPR. Milley didn\u2019t give mouth-to-mouth, she said.<\/p>\n<p>After about two cycles of chest compression, \u201che took a big spontaneous breath and a big groan on his own, and he started moving air,\u201d she said. \u201cAfter a few breaths, he started coming around.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At that point, Milley stopped resuscitating the man and moved him into the rescue position on his side.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>More at the source; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2020\/11\/16\/gen-milleys-wife-saved-a-mans-life-at-the-veterans-day-wreath-laying-ceremony-at-arlington\/?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Army%20DNR%2011.16.20&amp;utm_term=Editorial%20-%20Army%20-%20Daily%20News%20Roundup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Military Times<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeff LPH 3 sent along this cool story.
