WWII vet who earned Medal of Honor at 17 has died
JACKSON, Miss. — Jack Lucas, who at 14 lied his way into military service during World War II and became the youngest Marine to receive the Medal of Honor, died Thursday in a Hattiesburg, Miss., hospital. He was 80.

Read the obit. He was a hero of the type that we need even today.
