MIAMI (CBSMiami) – 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’re meeting World War II Veteran Staff Sgt. John Katsaros.
Katsaros joined the Naval Air Cadet Program on December 9, 1941, two days after Pearl Harbor.
He went on several dangerous missions, but there’s one he remembers vividly, his first mission to Frankfurt, Germany.
