Saved A Man’s Life, Didn’t Think Much Of It
Tech. Sgt. Ryan Ewing’s primary job in the Kansas National Guard is a boom operator in a KC-135 refueling jet, but it was the medical skills he learned in the Guard that surely came in handy when he saved a man’s life. Ewing, a member of the Guard for eight years, was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for annual simulation training at General Mitchell Air Force Base and was heading out of his hotel to meet his crew for dinner and baseball. He heard a yell from the hotel lobby.
