U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Austin Lawhon, 59th Medical Wing paramedic, receives an EMS Field Save Pin from his mentor and former active-duty paramedic, Adam Tellez, at Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center, Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas, April 23, 2025. Lawhon led the emergency response to save the life of a patient experiencing an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest - a medical event with only a 9.1% approximate chance of survival. EMS Field Save Pins are a symbolic honor to celebrate the rarity and significance of a successful out-of-hospital save and the heroism, training, and teamwork involved in saving a life.
