A few months ago, I mentioned that ABC's Bob Woodruff, who was injured in Iraq last January, will be making a special for the network about his recovery. Well, the AP is reporting that an air date for the special has been set: tentatively titled To Iraq and Back: Bob Woodruff Reports, it will air on February 27.In the special, Woodruff will not only talk about his long recovery process from his injuries, but he'll also speak to the medical personnel that helped him, as well as eyewitnesses to the roadside bomb attack. He'll also profile military rescue teams that work to get injured soldiers out of harm's way and to various field hospitals.
As was also announced this past fall, Woodruff and his wife Lee will also write a memoir on his recovery, to be published by Random House.

I've always felt especially bad for this guy. It's tragic that he was injured in Iraq along with many many other people, but this guy was about to become a network anchor. Made it especially sad for him.
