I'd bet my money on Christopher Lee. Not only was he himself a WW2 vet and fencer, but his roles include multiple versions of effing Count Dracula, Fu Man Chu and Saruman, as well as Frankenstein's Monster, the Mummy, Sherlock Holmes, Professor Moriarty, Pharaoah Ramses, Rochefort and even Charlemagne if we count his metal musical.
He also has over 280 films listed on IMDB, so he might win by sheer numbers and attrition even if he hadn't such formidable roles.
