Larry Pickett Jr. is a safety for the Army football team and a sophomore at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Following the Black Knights season opener this fall, Pickett and his family came across the scene of a single vehicle accident shrouded in downed power lines. The driver was unconscious. What happened next was a decision made by cadets and veterans alike since the beginning of their sacrifice for our country—to protect and serve. On College GameDay, Marty Smith reports.
