Navy medic reunites with baby saved from ash can during Korean War

Updated on: January 22, 2019 / 2:10 PM / CBS News

Minneapolis — It's a miraculous story, from a time of war, more than six decades in the making. CBS station WCCO-TV was there to witness the reconnection between a Minnesota Navy medic and his patient who once made headlines around the world.

Norm Van Sloun and Dan Keenen might sound like two old friends making up for lost time. They first met on the USS Point Cruz during the Korean War in 1953.

"I owe my life to the Point Cruz," Keenen said.
