• Notes

  Keith was a prisoner of war during World War II and after his release he had a weight problem. He would never talk much about what happened when he was a POW; but his diet consisted mostly of some form of bug juice. When he was released he talked to his Uncle Nelse about what happened some, but we will never know the horrors he endured. He was a very quiet man in his later years.
