Defender Turned Medic Saves Lives While Deployed

Staff Sgt. Samuel Lerman (right), 459th Security Forces Squadron, poses for a photo with Safiullah, an Afghan contractor, during a 2011 deployment to Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan. Lerman utilized Self-Aid-And-Buddy-Care training he received at Joint Base Andrews, Md., to help save Safiullah's life following a rocket attack during his deployment. After healing from his wounds, Safiullah returned to work shortly before Lerman completed his Afghanistan tour. (Submitted photo)
