My grandfather. "Fought" the Imperial Japanese as a boy by volunteering to help look for their hideouts, a hobby he introduced to friends of mine who in turn turned it into a pastime of cave exploration. Moved to America, began a bed and breakfast type of thing like nothing ever happened. Most knowledgeable family member I know and never have I ever had an argument with him, ever. Lived long enough to see me graduate plus three years.
