Corbin High School student receives National Medal of Heroism
BY ROBERT HALCOMB STAFF WRITER
CORBIN — Corbin High School sophomore Jacen Post was honored in May with the National Medal of Heroism for his help in saving a young boy ’ s life the previous summer .
Post , a member of the school ’ s JROTC ( Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps ) program , was at Camp Davy Crockett in Whitesburg , Tennessee — training with his fellow cadets .
When staff at the camp asked if anyone would like to volunteer to become a lifeguard , Colonel Mike Farley , CHS Senior Army Instructor , said that “ Post jumped at the opportunity .”
Post was only 15 at the time , but the staff were so impressed by his volunteerism that they decided to take him on .
Post had no formal lifeguard training , so the staff there happily trained him .
Col . Farley noted , “ I think that speaks volumes about him for jumping into something like that as a 15 year old .”
On July 10 , 2023 , while on break , Post heard the cries of a young man in distress , and according to witnesses , dove into the water “ without hesitation ” to go help .
Once Post got to the boy ,
