Paul Parks: A Hero's Story Exposed
A Boston Globe investigation into the a local political figure's past reveals that the politician has lied for years about how his involvement in World War II. For many years, Paul Parks, a civil rights leader in Boston and the former Massachusetts education secretary, has had a reputation as "a bridge-builder between black and Jewish communities based on his credentials -- unquestioned for decades -- as a liberator of the Dachau concentration camp in April 1945." Parks also is known to tell dramatic stories about his involvement in the D-Day Invasion at Normandy.
