Iraq War Veteran Nearly Dies Trying To Save Teen Girl From Imminent Death Lieutenant Danny Nee, Iraq War veteran, ended up in a tricky situation on duty as a firefighter. The building was completely up in flames, and Danny saw the teenager on the third floor. You see a 16 year-old girl hanging out of the window, you gotta get to her and get her out of the apartment, Nee said. He got to the third floor, and saw that she couldnt breathe. He took off his mask, leaving himself completely vulnerable to the smoke, and put it on her. You could see the terror in her eyes, he said. She had woken up to a smoke-filled apartment, it was scary. Thats what we train for, thats what were here for. We were happy to have the opportunity to get someones 16-year-olds daughter home for Christmas today. Although he wont admit it, Danny Nee is a hero. Lets thank him for his service in Iraq, and now as a firefighter. Do you think Danny Nee is a true American patriot?
