At once point his own father was brought to the island to call his son out of hiding but the guy thought it was americans trying to trick him so he stayed hidden.
Eventually he was found by some local fisherman and he was told the war ended years before and he still wouldnt beleive it. He wanted his superior officer to tell him in person so his general or whatever went to the island and told him and he came home.

No i don't mean the greek fire. I mean the normal romans around the time of empereor Augustus (somwhere around 20BC to 40 AD) already had something very similiar to flamethrowers i couldn't find a picture but it kinda looked like an trumpet filled with Oil. In front of it where the oil came out they attached a small candle or flame or whatever. You pressed one part of the trumpet thing into the another and the oil was forced out. Then it was lit up by the small flame and you could fire up to eight metres. It was used in a siege of an stronghold somwhere in Irael where some israelic rebels have dug in.
