Tony Curtis
Before we talk about his time in the military, let us ensure that we are all on the same page. Tony Curtis is indeed the father of Jamie Lee Curtis. Anyway, he went on to become a submarine tender after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941. Aside from that, he also got to witness the surrender of the Japanese at Tokyo Bay!

J.D. Salinger
How can we forget about the guy who wrote Catcher in the Rye? His great mind must have been of great use to him during the Second World War. Back then, he was in the counterintelligence division. He spent most of his military service stationed in Europe. He was able to climb the ranks until he became a staff sergeant.
