SUNRISE (CBSMiami) — Now to a weekly segment you will only see right here on CBS4.
Every Friday, in partnership with the Florida Panthers, we put the spotlight on a hero among us; men or women who have gone beyond the call of duty for our country.
Today, we are meeting U.S. Army Vietnam Veteran Specialist Joe Rieger.
Joe was drafted on February 10, 1970. He says his first thoughts about Vietnam was the anticipation of the unknown. He was stationed in South Vietnam where he was in charge of controlling aircraft and helicopters.
