It sounds too far-fetched for even a war movie:

Top general visits wounded soldier in the hospital.
Soldier snaps out of a coma… at the general's command.

But in fact, that's pretty much what happened last year.

The place: Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
The protagonists: General David Petraeus, and 1st Lieutenant Brian Brennan.

Today - Veteran's Day - both gentlemen joined Kyra live, to talk about it.

She also got a chance to ask the general about his White House ‘war cabinet’ meeting, scheduled for later that same hour.
