Williams
Boston Red Sox slugger Ted Williams missed almost five full baseball seasons (1943, 1944, 1945, 1952 and 1953) fighting as a fighter pilot in World War II and the Korean War and still managed to hit 521 home runs. This is pretty mind blowing in the context of today's pampered diva athletes like Lebron James.
