Alex Cornell du Houx
This was originally AFD'd mid december, but the tag was removed. There is no information about reasons for tagging apart from info below. While this young person is cleary a good role model, the hindsight of the 8 weeks since the story appeared gives a clearer view on him. The claim that the story received national attention is clear hyperbole, it appeared briefly on NBC, did the blogs for a week and was then forgotten. The man is now one of many who serve his country, and he may have a bright political future ahead of him, and if so deserves a wiki spot, but at the moment, he is simply an student leader who signed up.

 * Keep There are many other people who have Wikipedia pages who have done a lot less then this young man. The only reason this page is marked for deletion I believe is because of his age.
