The porter probably cares. smile

Although I enjoy Hemingway as a writer, the real adventurer in the family was his son Jack. Behind the lines in occupied France in WWII with the OSS. Later, one of the first Green Berets (before Kennedy gave them their unique headgear). And he wrote a pretty good memoir. The line I remember is when he stated that he was fated to be the son of a famous father, and a father of famous daughters. He wrote some hunting and fishing articles for Field & Stream.
