SUNRISE (CBSMiami) – Now to a weekly segment you will only see right here on CBS4.
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 United States Marine Domenick Santamaria.
Private First Class Santamaria enlisted in 1946 because he says he always wanted to be a Marine.
He was sent to China where originally they were to guard Japanese prisoners, but once they got there, things changed.
