(tim tai/student journalist) "if i had to do it over again, i probably wouldn't have engaged as much." >> one man was killed and more than a dozen people were injured when a two- family home exploded in a new jersey neighborhood yesterday. fifteen people were pulled from the home.. and one person believed to be missing after the blast was found safe. two of them are in critical condition with severe burns, including an 11-year-old child. surveillance video captured from a building across the street shows the exact moment when the entire roof blew off the home in elizabeth.. sending a blast of debris high into the sky.. and completely leveling the structure. police in baltimore, maryland say a man is dead and a police officer is injured after exchanging

gunfire last night. officials with the baltimore police department say officers encountered a 32-year-old man armed with a gun shortly before 8 p-m... and then gunfire was exchanged. one of the officers was shot in the leg and taken to a local hospital and is in stable condition. the officer is a five-year veteran of the police department. here in northwest iowa, there were several events honoring veterans, yesterday. students from west sioux community schools packed their gym to hear local veterans talk about the importance of military men and women. the morning began with the presentation of colors by the hawarden american legion color guard. students from the west sioux concert choir sang the national anthem. the concert band performed and veterans were asked to stand when the melody of their branch was played. american legion leaders spoke to the students about war. "they hear about it," said ken berke, american legion 9th district commander. "all of us here have experienced it in one way or another. we'd like to impart to them some of our thoughts and what they have to

thankful for." the assembly ended with the playing of taps and retiring of the colors by the color guard. at the end of the event, speaker and commander of the sons of the american legion reminded everyone to say thank you to veterans for their service. another veterans day ceremony that took place was in south sioux city, nebraska. the event was held at siouxland freedom park yesterday morning. following the playing of "taps", and brief remarks, one korean war veteran shared his story with ktiv's sam curtiss. bad weather wasn't going to stop gerald muilenburg from speaking wednesday morning. "i asked them what're you going to do," said gerald muilenburg. "they said 'oh just make it faster'." the korean war veteran says it's not often he talks of the time he served. let alone in front of a crowd. "i'm basically a shy person so i stay away from that stuff if i can," said gerlad muilenburg. muilenburg was drafted once he finished college in 1952.

he spent almost a year in korea. working in a headquarters company - mainly running a post exchange. selling things like food and clothes. "did not have to fight on the front as they [say] on the line," said gerald muilenburg. but those memories are distant. the sibley, iowa, native doesn't ponder much on what's ahead either. at 85 years old, he walks with a cane. it's kind of like a wooden reminder for his interpretation of veterans day. "it makes you think of where you were and man how time passes," said gerald muilenburg. following his years of service, he worked a variety of jobs. most recently working at farmer's markets. many of his jobs had one rule of thumb: that he be his own boss. something he was fortunate to do based on what he says was the biggest reward from serving. "coming home in one piece," said gerald muilenburg. in the korean war, nearly 40,000 americans were killed. more than 100,000 injured. a fight he feels is finally getting the identification it deserves. "korea[an] [war] is getting more recognition as we start dying off then it did actually during the last half of the war and since," said gerald muilenburg. sam curtiss, ktiv news four.

muilenburg now lives in south sioux city and is a member of american legion post 307. students at storm lake st. mary's payed tribute to veterans during a special ceremony that took place yesterday. elementary students sang patiotic tributes to the veterans who attended the event. and, students in mrs. klinker's third grade class in cherokee, iowa sent veterans day wishes to her son. he's serving with the navy aboard the uss cape george in the pacific. students at lyons-decatur northeast also gave back to veterans today. every student, preschool through 12th grade took part in a special they have this ceremony every year. after the pledge of allegiance, fourth graders read a special poem. some of the seniors shared the stories of veterans they interviewed. the students also raised $5,000 for a veterans memorial being planned in lyons. jerry ludwig accepted the check and was so moved he couldn't speak. and in downtown sioux city,

"present." ...and honoring our veterans. acknowledging those who have served, and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice. this tribute took place at the woodbury county courthouse in downtown sioux city. ktiv's own matt breen had the honor of leading the ceremony. your child's smartphone may be helping them hide things from you. we'll tell you what you can do to prevent it from happening, coming up. ben: and i'll have your

knot almost 47 years. and while that seems special in itself. it's the way they fell in love that falls nothing short of a fairytale. when roger was away for basic training in the army, mary started writing letters to him after meeting his cousin in study hall. this was before ever meeting him face to face. "i was in high school and you were aware of a lot of things that were going on with the guys that were in the service and i just thought it was something i would like to do to write to see if i could make things a little bit easier for somebody," said mary. one thing led to another and before they knew it, they were writing back and forth. one letter turned into several a week. then in may of 1967 roger returned for a month long leave. and, they met for the first time. "he came off the porch," said mary. "i picked him up at his cousin's house. i just thought he looked like a little runt because he had a uniform on. his pants were baggy." that didn't turn her away from roger. but, after a few dates, he left again, this time to vietnam. and the letters between them continued. su "on the letters roger would

send, there was one thing on the envelope that kept mary hopeful. he would write how many days until returning. "i had a chance to send off the painting, so when i get it, then i will send it to you," said roger reading one of the letters. that painting is one roger had an artist make for mary in vietnam. he carries the original photo with him everywhere he goes. a year-and-a-half after serving in vietnam he returned to the u.s. for good. and, he left mary with an unforgettable surprise. he stopped at her workplace and told her he would never leave again. a few months later, they married and as roger likes to say, "the rest is history." "somebody leaves the house, give her a goodbye kiss and say i love you, everytime, everyday," said roger. "at night when we go to bed, love you. and that's the way it's always been. that's the way it always will be." almost 5 decades later, the rest of their love story is still in the making. in hawarden, iowa, tiffany lane,

mary has all of the letters roger sent her, which totals more than 100. roger lost his during the war. after our winter wakeup call last night, ben says things should be better today. he's in next with the forecast... and a woman who has touched the

lives of many in fort hood texas was recently put in icu. we'll tell you what the soldiers are doing to give back to her. if you think there's no solution to the climate crisis, think again. in iowa, wind energy is already producing enough power for over a million homes, reducing our dependence on foreign oil and supporting six thousand jobs. i'm tom steyer. with bold leadership and an endless supply of wind and sun, we can do that across america. the goal is 50% clean energy by 2030. so, what are we waiting for? the son of a polish immigrant who grew up in a brooklyn tenement. he went to public schools, then college, where the work of his life began -- fighting injustice and inequality, speaking truth to power. he moved to vermont, won election and praise as one of america's best mayors. in congress, he stood up for working families

and for principle, opposing the iraq war, supporting veterans. now he's taking on wall street and a corrupt political system funded by over a million contributions, tackling climate change to create clean-energy jobs, fighting for living wages, equal pay, and tuition-free public colleges. people are sick and tired of establishment politics, and they want real change!

"we don't know from day to day, even if we'll have another day." now those who she so selflessly embraced... are wrapping their arms around her. "you become accustomed to it, and it's almost an expectation to know that she'll be there when you get home. you never think about moments like this and you take life granted." all morning the soldiers have been pouring in, returning the favor... giving hugs to the woman who lifted their spirits, hoping to do the same for her. "she's back to being the hug lady. her spirit and her attitude are back up there." the gratitude is

working and the support has been overwhelming. but for those who have experienced one of these hugs... (nats: laughing) well, nothing less would have been expected.

tough policy issues that stumped the frontrunners in this week's debate: (sot: donald trump/ (r) presidential candidate) "the currency manipulation they don't dicuss in the agreement." (sot: rand paul/ (r) presidential candidate) "china's not part of this deal." continue in new hampshire. donald trump.. offering few details on how he'd humanely deport 11 million immigrants: (sot: donald trump/ (r) presidential candidate) "well, it's a whole management thing." ben carson - who now says he supports boots on the ground in syria - isn't elaborating on his debate comment that china is involved there: (sot: dr. ben carson/ (r) presidential

candidate) "i would have to refer you to some other people." ted cruz and marco rubio seem to be gearing up for a faceoff. this was cruz in new hampshire last night, on rubio and immigration: (sot: ted cruz/ (r) presidential candidate) "when the fight was being fought, where did you stand?" rubio's doubling down on tough talk against russia's leader: (sot: marco rubio/ (r) presidential candidate) "that's what he is - he's a gangster." jeb bush... who held his own amid struggling numbers... is targeting donald trump's promise to send syrian refugees home: (sot: jeb bush/ (r) presidential candidate) "wow. i'm thinking, donald to their slaughter. is that the america that represents?" divisions highlighted in this week's debate.. playing out on the campaign trail. bush was just endorsed by former republican nominee bob dole. i'm tracie potts in washington, now back to you. >> russian president vladimir putin told his country's sports leaders that russia needs to conduct its own investigation into whether it systematically dopes its athletes. the world's anti-doping agency accused russian track and field athletes of doping... with the help of the government. putin also visited the russian wrestling team at a training center in sochi yesterday. yesterday, president obama sent a message to the nation to keep those who have served our country in their thoughts long after the parades and ceremonies have concluded. during an observance at arlington national cemetery, the president paid tribute to all the men and women who have served in the armed forces by laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknowns.

in the midst of a new wave of veterans who have served in afghanistan, iraq, and other parts of the world... and urged businesses and communities to consider hiring them when they return home. he said the tributes will ring hollow if we don't allow our veterans to receive the care they deserve, or if they aren't given opportunities to work after their military service has ended. our military's highest honor, the medal of honor, will be given to the latest recipient today. captain flo groberg will be presented with the award by president obama this morning. groberg is being honored for his actions that took place in august of 2012, when he put himself between his men and a suicide bomber. groberg survived the medal of honor recipient from the wars in iraq and afghanistan. some folks in norfolk, nebraska gathered yesterday to honor currently serving. retired navy chaplain mike moreno was the guest speaker at the norfolk veterans home. moreno served eight years on active duty, and still serves in

purpose, and said those who serve put on the uniform so the country can remain strong. "we don't fight because we hate the people in front of us, we fight because of the people behind us that we love and that's you guys." moreno went on to say people can honor the veterans who died by following their dreams. nasa will hold a media conference call this afternoon to provide an update to how the earth is responding to the increasing levels of heat trapping gases in the atmosphere and what that means for the earth's climate. later this month, a united nations climate meeting in paris will focus on setting limits on future levels of human-produced carbon emissions. today's briefing will present new observations from the orbiting carbon observatory-2 mission, nasa's first satellite dedicated to measuring carbon dioxide. yesterday was an interesting day for weather here in siouxland. in addition to rain, hail, and high winds, the storm also dropped snow. it was still to0 warm for it to stick to streets, and sidewalks.

so you won't be waking up to snow this morning. but, vehicles did get a fresh blanket of snow, last night. when you get that alert telling you to seek shelter immediately...you never know where you are going to be. in black hawk county iowa--they got creative at a grocery store olivia mancino has the story.
