RIP, Marine
The youngest person to be awarded the Medal of Honor since the Civil War has passed away. From the article: 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.
