Master Sgt. Daniel Raimondo, upon seeing the burning building outside Osan Airbase, urged the people on the street to help hold a blanket while convincing the three mothers to throw their babies and then themselves from the fourth floor window.
A video of the rescue was posted online by fellow officer Bill Frost, who posted the video of the incident and introduced Raimondo as a “stellar airman and teammate.”
The video has been shared over 1,100 times on Facebook.
