Medal of Honor Hero Rejoins Army as Master Sergeant
World War II Medal of Honor recipient Jake William Lindsey, age 33, is re-enlisted as a master sergeant after briefly leaving the service to accept a discharged status. Lindsey, who led an infantry platoon in Germany, plans to return to paratroopers and had served since 1940 with a brief postwar gap. Truman once told him he’d rather have the Medal of Honor than be President.
