The family of Cpl. David Qualls, a motor transport assistant operations chief with Marine Wing Support Squadron 471, 4th Marine Aircraft Wing, Marine Forces Reserve, listen attentively as Qualls receives his Navy and Marine Corps Medal at the 1st Battalion, 23rd Marine Regiment headquarters in Houston, Texas, May 20, 2017. In 2014, Qualls and other Marines helped save a man stuck inside a burning vehicle. According to the award summary, had he not arrived when he did, the man would have surely died.
