Derrick Anderson, class of '06 and 2005 Homecoming King was featured in a 60 Minutes episode in 2017 for his role as a Green Beret Captain in a 2014 friendly fire incident in the war in Afghanistan.

Derrick and I were in the same fraternity pledge class. The guy is as genuine as they come and he just graduated Georgetown Law on May 20th. Huge thank you to him and all of our service men and women for the sacrifices they make for us all.

For Memorial Day Weekend, 60 Minutes re-aired the episode on Sunday.

The story is a bit emotional.
