In this special episode of GHOST WHISPERER, “Haunted Hero,†the show pays tribute to the brave men and women serving our country in Iraq . The story begins with a U.S. soldier and Iraqi war veteran who recently returned from combat with a medal in hand only to later be accused of deserting his platoon. The soldier is continuously haunted with nightmares reminding him of his time at war, specifically that night he lost his men, and it’s up to Melinda (Jennifer Love Hewitt) to find out the truth. This episode blends fiction with a dose of reality as real-life U.S. Soldier Veterans participated in this historic episode.
Knowing how well this show handles just everyday situations with care and compassion, I can’t wait to see what Ghost Whisperer does tonight with this very special episode at 8p on CBS. Bring a box of Kleenex because I am sure we are going to go through it.
