b"Volume 3, Issue 1 CUSTODIS PRO FERRUMPage 9 ORDNANCE MARINE - CPL UBL - FROM 2ND LAR BN SAVES A LIFE Cpl Ubl, an Alpha Company LAV mechanic, was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal for saving the life of a man he found unresponsive while off duty on December 16, 2019 outside of the Walmart gas station in Richlands, North Carolina.Cpl Ubl was leaving the Walmart gas station when he noticed a man lying on the ground unresponsive and another person attempting to admin-ister CPR. Without hesitation, Corporal Ubl maneuvered his truck to block traffic in order to secure the area. Once he was sure the area was safe from other vehicles, he went to assist the individual administering CPR.The gentleman conducting CPR did not know the proper technique so Corporal Ubl stepped in and started to administer CPR on the unresponsive individual. He continued for 15 minutes until First Responders arrived on the scene to assess the situation further. First Responders assessed that they needed to defibrillate to stimulate the man's heart. Cor-poral Ubl then assisted them in utilizing the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) two times in order to stimulate the patient's heart. Due to Corporal Ubl's quick thinking and fast actions the man was transported alive via helicopter to a medical facility. Thank you, Cpl Ubl, for your fast thinking and quick response to what could have turned out to be a very bad scenario and for carrying-on the Traditions of the United States Marine Corps!Thank You For Your Service HOctober 2020 H Military Appreciation Resource Magazine 53"
