A sprint into the night: how a sailor’s quick action saved a life

U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class Sammuel Goodwin, a hospital corpsman with 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, poses for a photo with Melinda Gurrola at Hillcrest Medical Center at University of California San Diego Health Hospital, California. Gurrola was in a motorcycle crash that left her severely injured on the I-805 north. After seeing the scene of the crash, Goodwin used his medical training to treat Gurrola's injuries and assisted paramedics in getting her to the hospital for further treatment. Goodwin's selflessness and quick medical intervention helped save Gurrola's life. Goodwin is a native of Queens, New York. (U.S. Marine Corps courtesy photo)
