Heroes Among Us: ‘I Am Honored To Have Served’, Retired US Army Sergeant

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Now to a weekly segment you will only see right here on CBS 4.

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.

This week, we’re meeting retired U.S. Army Sergeant First Class Jim Daigle.

He enlisted in 2004 after his son Allen, who is a U.S. Marine, was injured in Iraq. He and his son are one of a few father and son teams with Purple Hearts because they were wounded in the same conflict.
