Heroes Among Us: Retired Green Beret Commander ‘Led By Example’ In Persian Gulf

SUNRISE (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 retired United States Army Captain Terry Crout.

Captain Crout served in the infantry division of the U.S. Army from 1976-1993. He ended up becoming a Special Forces Green Beret working his way up to commander. He spent the first two years serving in the American Canal Zone in Panama, and the Middle East during the Persian Gulf War always leading by example.
