A West Point football player is being heralded as a hero for running to a burning car to rescue the driver moments before the vehicle was engulfed in flames.
The United States Military Academy posted on its Facebook page Sunday night, “USMA is proud of the heroic actions taken Saturday night by Cadet Larry Pickett Jr, a second-year West Point cadet and Army West Point Football player, and his father, Larry Pickett Sr, who are seen pulling a driver to safety in a video online taken by the family. Running towards danger to save lives is the embodiment of the Army Values and Warrior Ethos.”
