Walt Walters and his family were taken hostage by a group of Hitler supporters shortly after the birth of his twin sons, Rick and Dick Walters. His wife was killed by their abductors and a heartbroken Walt swore to raise his sons as exemplars of goodness and steadfast defenders of democratic values. When the war broke out in Europe, his two sons wanted to do their part of their own country, but bring 16 at the time, were too young to enlist, so unknown to Walt, put on costumes and fought the enemy in the U.S.
