We want to salute Navy and Army veteran Col. Wiley Bell.

Bell served for five years in the Navy before having a 26-year career in the U.S. Army where he retired as a full colonel.

He's seen action in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam.

Bell was nominated by his son, who said, "He is my hero and my dad."

Now 92 years old, Bell spends his time enjoying his retirement with his family.

Thank you, Col. Wiley Bell, for your lifetime of service.

You can nominate a veteran who deserves to be recognized at News9.com/SomethingGood.
