Guess who's the worst [about asking for advice]? My colleagues at work! They come and close the door and they unload their problems. But I got smart about it. I said, wow, you know what?

May 29th, 2006 was Memorial Day in the U.S. On that day CBS News correspondent Kimberly Dozier was on assignment in Iraq, where she had covered the war since its beginning. But that day was the day Dozier nearly died - a massive car bomb killed her camera crew, a young army captain, and an Iraqi translator. Dozier was gravely injured, and spent months recovering. Now she tells her remarkable story of survival, in a book she calls "Breathing the Fire."
