My father disappeared in 1924 when I was four and my sister two. He was never heard from again - until last December, 75 years later, 34 years after his death. He had enlisted in the Army under another name for a two-year Phillipines hitch, remarried three times, and had two more children. He had revealed his real name for the first time on his deathbed, and when the internet came along my siblings began trolling through the genealogical message boards, eventually finding me. You never know. Dana
