One of the most interesting stories comes from a nearby chapter - during WWII, one of the members was killed.

Such a sad story...this brother fought the Japanese in the Phillipines until they had to surrender. He survived the Bataan death march.

He was then loaded with several thousand other POW's onto a ship bound for Japan - on the route, a US submarine sank the ship, believing it to hold war material. All on board were lost.
