If you live long enough and pay attention along the way, chances are you will rub shoulders with some interesting and amazing people and their life stories. I have lived a long life, and indeed have run across my share of amazing and interesting people. Adam von Dioszeghy is one such person, and I am blessed to know his life story and be counted among his friends. • At 6 years of age, a World War II veteran as he and his mother survive the battle raging around them in Budapest.• Came of age under a tyrannical communist regime.• At 18 years of age, became a freedom fighter in that ill-fated 1956 Hungarian Revolution. Most likely a leader of that revolution. • Fled to the US as a refugee, having nothing and not knowing the language of his new country.• Graduated from Stanford University.• Served as a US Naval Officer with three combat tours to Vietnam.• Gained a Doctor of Law degree from Stanford Law School.• Retired, and along with his wife Aliz, moved back to his old country of Hungary.• Authored his life memoirs.• Co-authored, along with Aliz, two additional memoirs describing their relocation and new life in Hungary.
