Just 2 Days Left to Double Your Impact

In 1942, at just 15 years old, Aaron Kennedy Stull of Bakersfield, California, made a life-changing decision. Without his parents’ knowledge, he enlisted in the U.S. Army under the name Aaron Kennedy.

As a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division, Aaron courageously fought in the D-Day invasion at Normandy. After heavy losses, he was reassigned to the 101st Airborne Division, where he fought at Bastogne and the Battle of the Bulge, earning a Purple Heart for his bravery. His true age and identity were discovered only after he was wounded on the battlefield and rescued by a Catholic chaplain.

Today, Aaron Kennedy Stull rests at Lafayette Cemetery, along with 334 other veterans who served our country.
