Walt Disney

Walt Disney lied about his age in order to sign up with the American Ambulance Corps, a division of the Red Cross. During WWI, Disney was in Paris. Though there are rumors he received a dishonorable discharge, they aren’t true. He nearly faced disciplinary action for abandoning a truck that was ferrying supplies that had broken down; however, the driver that was with him who went for help went on a two-day bender instead. Disney stayed with the truck for two days before going to find food and shelter.
