PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. –– Nicholas Guernsey took CPR training for a Boy Scout merit badge about four years ago and it paid off in June when he used his skill to save a man in the throes of a heart attack. The Prince William Board of County Supervisors recently recognized and commended Guernsey for his “Act of Heroism.”

Guernsey, 17, of Boy Scout Troop 35, was waiting on a morning school bus at Swann’s Creek Elementary School on June 11, 2013, when he noticed a man in a parked car who seemed to be having a heart attack. Guernsey’s first aid training kicked in and he immediately went to the man’s aid. He helped him out of his car, directed someone to monitor his pulse and administered CPR until Emergency Medical Technicians arrived.
