Description
English: Staff Sgt. Phonphet Vongsalack, from the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Ariz., Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 13 aviation logistics information management support chief, and his friend Juan Lopez rescued 19-year-old Jacquelyne Piche from her wrecked vehicle near Los Angeles Feb. 7, possibly saving her life. Just seconds after Vongsalack and Lopez pulled her from the car, the power line pole Piche had crashed into snapped and fell, pulverizing the vehicle. “I’m very thankful that they were there,” said Piche. “I don’t know what would’ve happened if they hadn’t helped me.” Piche left the accident with a crushed pelvis and various scrapes, but says she’ll make a full recovery in three months and walk unassisted in six weeks. Vongsalack and his friend were on their way to go fishing at Lake Piru, located in Ventura County, when they spotted the accident. “I just did what any other Marine would do,” said Vongsalack, a 35-year-old Dallas native.
