U.S. Marine Corps Lt. Col. Lt. Col. Gerard VanderWaal, commanding officer of Security Battalion, addresses Marines, friends, and family after awarding an impact Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal to Lance Cpl. Abigail Rodriguezpabon, a Florida native and an administrative specialist with Security Battalion, on Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, June 20, 2025. On 8 May, Rodriguezpabon performed lifesaving actions at the scene of a serious motor vehicle accident involving several vehicles on the southbound road of Jefferson Davis Highway—Route 1; she applied training techniques she learned years ago from Marine Corps recruit training and Marine Combat Training, effectively applying a tourniquet to one of the casualties with an injured leg and bringing him to consciousness with a sternum rub. “You don’t have to be whatever military occupational specialty to save a life or even make a difference—anyone can make a difference,” she said.
