After a story Local 2 aired Tuesday night where a veteran wanted to find a Marine who saved his life, that reunion was made possible by a Local 2 viewer.
Grace Horner contacted the TV station.
“My family and I were watching TV and we watched your report,” she said.
Horner is a U.S. Navy veteran who works at Ellington Field. She used her military resources and started making phone calls.
"I did everything I could to find him and this morning I got a call back from his battalion leader. He said, 'Sure enough, this is who you’re looking for,'" she said.
The Marine’s name is Wade Bracken. He’s a 28-year-old active-duty Marine stationed at Ellington Field. He had been at Hobby Airport last week picking up a fellow Marine when he spotted Jim Babb in distress.
