Dudley Seymour's nickname was "Tiny," though he stood over six feet, six inches tall and weighed 360 pounds. The towering First World War veteran told a memorable yarn that caught the attention of some news outlets — including the CBC — in 1960. Dudley 'Tiny' Seymour was a guest on CBC's Front Page Challenge on May 17, 1960. He'd been told to give them to a major, but that wasn't possible as that officer had been "knocked out." In 1959, Seymour took a trip back to Belgium and, apparently, dug up the rum in the spot where he'd left it.
