Captain Andrew Gremillion, LA National Guard, saving the world
Chief Tango sends us a link to the story of Louisiana National Guardsman Captain Andrew Gremillion who, upon hearing a loud splash, left his family and sprinted to the scene where a woman’s car fell into a nearby canal. Captain Gremillion, formerly enlisted and an Afghanistan veteran rescued the woman from her watery grave. He was characteristically humble;
“In my opinion, anybody that wears this uniform would have done the exact same thing I did, because we’re just programed that way,” Gremillion said. “I was just fortunate enough to be the one there to help out a nice lady in a time of need.”
He was awarded the Soldiers Medal for non-combat heroism for his actions in February 2014 that saved a woman’s life.
