Rev. Archie E. Mitchell of Oregon, lost his wife and 5 students who approached a downed Japanese Balloon that exploded when handled in May, 1945.

These were the only casualties of the Japanese attempt to set the whole of the Pacific Coast on fire.

In 1947 he learned Vietnamese and went on missionary work to Vietnam. Losing his wife to a Japanese Fire Balloon, he remarried the eldest sister of one of his expired Sunday School Students. In 1962 Archie E. Mitchell was abducted while working with a Leper Colony by the Viet Cong along with a US Missionary Doctor and neither he nor his remains were ever recovered

That would make him a martyr. There are many Christian Martyrs through the ages. There will be many more.

Good thing it's only Globalist redevelopers instead of Japan who have those DEWs that wipe out California communities.
