This is a story about overcoming obstacles. It is also personal. I was diagnosed with Tourette syndrome at the age of six. This year I was the emcee at the Supporting Abilities Gala, hosted by the Tourette Association of America. Callum was invited to speak at the gala after he told his story first on "CBS Mornings."

A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
