Mentor pins an EMS Field Save Pin on an Air Force paramedic


Air Force medics' heroics highlight vital role of military health professionals

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.
