August Chaffee, a medic for the 119th Field Artillery, Michigan National Guard, was taking a customer for a test drive from his civilian job at a car dealership when another vehicle went off the road and went down the sewage drainage ditch. Chaffee pulled the driver from the vehicle and moved him to the rear of the car and started conducting chest compressions. Another car stopped and a woman said she was a respiratory therapist and used her shirt as a barrier to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitations.
