If any veteran still believes that their military skills have no use in the civilian world, let this be proof to the contrary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Last Friday night, Sgt. Emily Anderson was celebrating her grandfather\u2019s 80th birthday with her family at the Crown Sterling restaurant in Lynchburg, Virginia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

During their dinner, Anderson \u2014 a 28-year-old Army medic with the Virginia National Guard based in Charlottesville, Virginia \u2014 told Military Times she realized that a man at a table behind her was having trouble breathing. The man quickly passed out, and Anderson knew her military training was needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

She said that she and a few others helped the man to the floor and felt for his pulse, which they couldn\u2019t find. Anderson began CPR, and it took two rounds for the man to regain consciousness. She said she kept him talking to make sure he stayed awake until the ambulance arrived. – Article<\/p>\n

SGT Anderson is 8 months along. Let’s all applaud her for her quick thinking, among other things, and look for the positive in life. She is a fine example of her generation, head and shoulders above the squawkers.<\/p>\n
