Lusteveco's U.S. owners, including Edward M. Grimm and Charles ("Chick") Parsons, who was a Navy guerrilla in World War II (and later told about it in Rendezvous by Submarine), promptly set about rebuilding. By 1963, Grimm, Parsons and colleagues were able to sell their 50% interest for $6.6 million to a group of Filipino businessmen and investors headed by Jose B.
