Star Spangled Salute: Heroes Save A World War II Veteran

Today’s Star Spangled Salute honors Robert Brendel and David Teal and the 96-year old World War II Veteran they saved from drowning.  Robert and David were busy on their roofing job when they heard a man yelling for help.  Without hesitation they ran toward the cry for help.  When they arrived they saw that a man, they would later find out was a 96-year old World War II Veteran, had fallen through the ice on the banks of the river while fishing.  Robert called for help while David jumped in the water. After pulling the Veteran to safety, he said he was hoping to live to be 100 and wasn’t ready to go just yet.  Since the ordeal, a warmer, safer fishing trip is being planned among the new friends.  Thank you Robert and David for being there, and to that unidentified Veteran, thank you for your service.
