Coast Guard Rear Adm. David Throop, commander, Coast Guard 13th District, presents the Meritorious Service Medal to Darci Dawson at the Coast Guard Base Seattle Museum on July 7, 2017, for her selfless actions after she saved the life of a drowning 18-month-old toddler in 2016. Kaden Sluggett wandered into a creek and nearly drowned when Dawson discovered him, administered CPR and successfully resuscitated him while transiting to meet an ambulance.
