Heroes Among US: ‘What Made Me Proud, The Fact That The Germans Lost’, WWII Army Vet David Ingerman

MIAMI (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.

This week we’re meeting World War II U.S. Army Air Corps veteran David Ingerman.

Private First Class Ingerman was drafted in 1942 and served until the end of the war in 1945. He first landed in Africa where he only stayed for a short period of time. He was then sent to Italy and then France. While in France he was dispatched to Germany where his unit was always one mile behind the infantry.
