1941-1945 The War Years

Brave Men Join The Fight

Like every other patriotic American after Dec. 7, 1941, Mike was anxious to join up and serve his country at the outbreak of the WWII. Using several of his many identities, Mike actively served in each branch of the military. When he got bored with one, he would fake a mysterious disappearance and, later, be declared MIA. With each identity, the sole beneficiary named was a dummy charity linked to Mike’s Sioux City bank account.
