Big Honor for Central Texas’s KWTX
Congratulations to our news partners, KWTX.
KWTX reported that they were honored as first Purple Heart Television Station.
Veterans and Purple Heart recipients showed up Friday for the unveiling of a new monument which designated KWTX as a Purple Heart Television Station.
The Order of the Purple Heart made the proclamation, and it's the first of it's kind. John Footman petitioned the national organization back in March for the designation. The two award winning documentaries, "We Can't Forget Vietnam" and "From the Ashes of Vietnam", were the main reason.
Congratulations again to everyone at KWTX.
