Exclusively on WXEL-TV
Be Proud to be an American...All Over Again
The Remarkable story of the Medevac miracles that save America’s men and women in Afghanistan.
Tim Malloy, award-winning reporter, anchor & war correspondent, and local television news personality for nearly 20 years, has been to Afghanistan more than half a dozen times and was embedded with American troops there.
Now, exclusively on WXEL-TV, in vivid detail, he tells the story of the courageous men and women who put their own lives on the line to save our wounded soldiers, plucking them from the battlefield while under devastating enemy fire.
In this special one hour report, you will see the Medevac teams in action, you will hear from the wounded...some perilously close to death...as they tell the stories of how they were saved. Also, you will meet the Medevac teams; dedicated, compassionate and committed to saving lives, even if their own are put in harm’s way in the process.
The program will air Memorial Day weekend, and will feature Tim Malloy as the anchor and host, as well as South Florida residents who served in the war.
Saving America's Heroes is brought to you in part by Florida Power & Light Company.
