He quit his job and invested everything he had in this remarkable farm program that helps troubled vets re-enter civilian life.

The special is produced by Gordon Elliott's Chew Productions for the ABC Television Network. It is broadcast in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC's selected HDTV format with 5.1 channel surround sound. A TV parental guideline will be assigned closer to the airdate.
