After 2 semesters at Norwich University, Northfield Vermont and basic infantry training at Camp Wheeler in Macon, Georgia he headed for the Philippines. Two days out from San Fransico VJ Day was declared. In the Philippines he was assigned to the 849th Ordnance Depot Company. Unique to the photos in his possession are those of General of the Army, Dwight D. Eisenhower as photographed by one of his friends.
