He was out driving his route yesterday, when he saw an elderly woman lying alongside the road &#8211; she was choking on a piece of food. Bryant leaped from his truck, not taking time to change into his superhero uniform, and performed the Heimlich maneuver on the woman;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Luckily, the 83-year-old victim was able to dislodge that piece of food. Paramedics then took her to a local hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Bryant says his military training kicked in to help save that woman. Bryant served as a Marine in Afghanistan. He was a gunner and reached the rank of corporal. Bryant says he does not consider himself to be a hero; saying instead that he did what anyone else would have done to save that elderly woman.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script type='text\/javascript' src='http:\/\/WAGA.images.worldnow.com\/interface\/js\/WNVideo.js?rnd=824566;hostDomain=www.myfoxatlanta.com;playerWidth=500;playerHeight=300;isShowIcon=true;clipId=11390433;flvUri=;partnerclipid=;adTag=News;advertisingZone=;enableAds=true;landingPage=;islandingPageoverride=false;playerType=STANDARD_EMBEDDEDscript;controlsType=fixed'><\/script><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myfoxatlanta.com\" title=\"Atlanta News, Weather, Traffic, and Sports | FOX 5 \">Atlanta News, Weather, Traffic, and Sports | FOX 5 <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tequila Volare sends us a link from FoxAtlanta about David Bryant, a UPS employee and an &hellip; <a title=\"David Bryant; Marine veteran saving the world\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=59279\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">David Bryant; Marine veteran saving the world<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":59280,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[130],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-59279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-real-soldiers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59279","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=59279"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59279\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/59280"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=59279"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=59279"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=59279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
