Military Service |
Not much is known about his military career in the US other than he served in the US Army during the Korean War. When he was about 23 years old he left the US and joined the Canadian Army - but then changed his mind and deserted before he even had a chance to serve, coming back to the US. Carl (my uncle) did not have an easy life, but he certainly had a colorful one. |
