American Hero

[Chapo]

This weekend I met a true American hero and did not even realize it until today. I am blessed to work for some people that allow me luxuries that I would not have without them. They flew me and my wife on their jet to Steamboat Springs for the weekend. I got to meet and visit with their pilots quite a bit. When we came home on Sunday I was talking with the younger pilot and he asked if I knew who the other pilot was. I said I didn’t and he told me to google him. I don’t know how to post a YouTube link but you should search Captain Vince Amato. It is an incredible story that I’m willing to bet most people have never heard.
