Andras Toma is remembered as the last prisoner of war from WWII. He spent 50 years in a mental institution because his doctors did not speak Hungarian and mistook him for someone who was mentally ill. He was captured in 1945, released in 2000, and died in 2004.
It’s a sad story raising many questions and spinning off several anecdotes. One story was that he did not know his own reflection. On being released and looking in a mirror for the first time in decades, the man he remembered himself to be was no longer who he saw.
