SUNRISE (CBSMiami) – Every Friday, in partnership with the Florida Panthers, CBS4 puts the spotlight on a hero among us.
Men or Women who have gone beyond the call of duty for our country.
This week we introduce you to World War II veteran Carmin Yannotta.
He was only 19 when we he was drafted overseas during World War II but saw plenty of action serving under General Patton’s Third Army.
During his time overseas as a combat engineer, Yannotta spent quite some time building bridges for the infantry to cross as they pushed through Germany.
