In World War II, there were many stories of soldiers who were wounded, were brought to a rear base hospital, who went AWOL, crawled out of windows, slipped out doors, went AWOL, wounded, to make their way back to the front lines to rejoin their brothers out there.
Istnieje wiele zapisków  z czasów II Wojny Światowej, gdzie ranni żołnierze, którzy trafiali do szpitala, uciekali, wypełzali przez okna,  wymykali się drzwiami, będąc ranni, wracali na front, by dołączyć do swoich braci.
