But when the Korean War ended, Duane was forced to return home, and his family intercepted all their letters, tearing apart this American-Japanese couple. Peggy thought he had moved on. Duane thought she had married someone else. For 70 years, both carried the weight of what they believed was a love that slipped away. In 2022, at 91 years old, the American veteran made one final attempt to find his Japanese first love. He posted on Facebook, sharing his story and the regret that had haunted him for seven decades. What happened next was nothing short of miraculous. With the help of a young historian named Theresa Wong, Peggy was found—alive and living just 650 miles away in Michigan. On June 1st, 2022, they reunited. Duane finally got to say the words he had carried in his heart for 70 years: "I never abandoned you." This is their story—a testament to a love that transcends time, distance, culture, and a lifetime of separation. 💖 If the story touched you, don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to help us share more real stories filled with courage and love.
