LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Two people who work at the Nellis Air Force Base Exchange were given a high honor for saving a retired military member's life.
Ikaipo Atienza and Alan Timbol were awarded Red Cross Certificates of Merit signed by the president.
Back in December, the two men took quick action after a military retiree was found unconscious.
They performed CPR and used a defibrillator until paramedics arrived.
