My grandfather survived 5 beach landings in WWII and came home to open a restaurant. He worked every day (you have to or people in that industry will steal from you) to provide for his family.
The only luck or exploitation he had was having the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki so he didn't have to die on a Japanese beach (his medical records at that time listed him as suffering from typhoid and dysentery - but because the war effort was stretched so thin, he was also listed as "combat ready". He would have died)
