Did Walt Disney help with the war?

Short Answer, No. Answer Explained: There's a lot of rumors about Walt serving in WW1, the fact of the matter is that he was a member of the Red Cross, and drove an ambulance in France for a year. However, that was after Nov 1918, when WW1 had ended. Furthermore, Walt was born 1901, so he was too young to have served as a soldier in the United States Armed forces, during WW1 (1914-1918).
