Jacklyn Lucas

Years after illegally joining the Marines at the age of 14, Jacklyn Lucas snuck onto a ship bound for Iwo Jima, stormed the beach without a rifle, and threw himself on top of two grenades to protect his team. He survived and earned the Medal of Honor at the age of 17. He also served as a paratrooper from 1961-65 to conquer his fear of heights. He once even survived a training jump where both of his parachutes did not open. He fell 3,500 feet and was unscathed.
