Description

United States Marine who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroic actions during the Iwo Jima campaign for unhesitatingly hurling himself over his comrades upon one grenade and for pulling another one under himself.

Seven satin-finish 8 x 10 and 10 x 8 photos, three color, some from Iwo Jima, two of Iwo Jima memorials, and one of the Medal of Honor, each signed in blue felt tip, “Jack Lucas, Medal of Honor.” In very fine condition. R&R COA.
