Air date: Dec 07, 2000

Retired Colonel George Marecek is one of the most decorated Green Berets in the Army's history. And he's still tough as nails. Over 36 years, he has fought in three wars. "I stand for integrity," Marecek says. "Devotion to duty, love for your nation. And above it all, truth." But did he murder his wife? Susan Spencer reports on this strange case.
