The last one that I recall was in the 70s. That was considered pretty amazing back then. The guy was in all the news magazines. If this is real, then these guys are way more nuts than that guy. I'm wondering if these aren't just guys who deserted and got a native girl and a hut and settled down, and who now want to go home.

I'm wondering if these aren't just guys who deserted and got a native girl and a hut and settled down, and who now want to go home. And couldn't afford a plane ticket. Sounds reasonable to me.

I suspect it's a combination of the two -- they holed up, didn't find out about the end of the war until years after the fact, and then decided to just stay where they were and are only now changing their minds (because they're feeling too old to survive unassisted?).
