One who thought of himself as better than anyone else. His time as a POW did not change that. Too many strings were pulled for him that allowed him to continue advancing in life.

He is the geezer living next door that gets upset if anyone touches his yard. Ready to blast anyone or anything with his shotgun. He is the geezer that will keep anything or refuse to return anything that ends up in his yard.

He was the bad apple of the Navy and they should had thrown him out. If it had been someone else they would had.
