A 103-year-old World War II veteran has finally been honored for his time in the military - 76 years after he helped save countless lives on the battlefield.

Peter Fantasia, of Somerville, Massachusetts, served as a US Army medic in Company L, 3rd Battalion, 104th Infantry Regiment, 26th Infantry Division.

He was captured one night in 1944 in Rodalbe, France, while tending to wounded men in a foxhole and spent the next six months as a prisoner of war until being liberated by Russian forces in April 1945.
