Bernhard Arp Sindberg
Bernhard Arp Sindberg (19 February 1911 – 1983) also known as "Mr. Xin" or "Xinbo"〔 The Greatest Dane,〔(The Danish newspaper ''Berlingske Tidendes'' homepage ). Danish language. Retrieved 2010-10-21.〕 the shining Buddha〔 or "our saviour" was born in Aarhus, Denmark and went out into the world at age 17 and lived most of his life in the U.S., where he also died. His urge to travel took him far around the world, particularly to China, where he was one of the few foreigners who witnessed the Nanking Massacre. He behaved not passive to the atrocities and later, his pictures, letters and experiences, played a role in the understanding of the massacre.〔(Nordic Association for China Studies )〕 His very active efforts saved 6,000 Chinese from a cruel fate and he has been honored on several occasions. This later gave him the title; "a friend of China".〔http://www.ambbeijing.um.dk/en/menu/TheEmbassy/News/ChineseScholarsDiscussSindbergAtNanjingUniversity.htm〕
== Early life ==
His urge to travel started in the childhood years, when he ran away as a 2-year-old, but he was found and taken home again. The second time he ran away, was on the bike and here he reached halfway across the country. Third time he reached even further and was first stopped at the America-steamer in Hamburg, Germany.〔 At the age of 17, his family could no longer keep him home and went to the U.S. for 3 years and then returned home. He joined the Foreign Legion,〔 but was disappointed the people and the hard efforts in the Moroccan desert, and after 10 months service, he ran off into the mountains and out of the country as a stowaway on a ship.
