My hat is off to this hero! How wonderful that he was recognized this way.

My FIL went to military school so at 17 was a first lieutenant in WWII. He went to Africa first and then through Italy. If he were still alive today, he would’ve been 100. Died at 92. Rarely talked about his time in the foxholes.

Yet in all those war movies Hollyweird shows soldiers in their 30’s and 40’s, no teen’s which were the majority recruits and draftees. Kids would lie about their age to be able to join up. Today they’re upset over the color of their cellphone.
