Speaking of which--although i cant find it now..a number of years ago  I was surfing the Internet there was a story of a Jewish German Physician who served in US Civil War 1861-1865 and went back to Germany...who volunteered for as a Military surgeon/service with the Fatherland...even though he was in his 60's70s!  He did not survive the War...sorry I cant remember his name..or more of his story...but any other similar stories of retired soldier "Retreads" ...?
