He graduated from Massanutten Military Academy in 1917 and enlisted in the U.S. Marines in the summer of 1918. After training at Parris Island, South Carolina, he was sent overseas, arriving in France about a week before the Armistice was signed in November 1918.

After his military service, he found work at an insurance agency in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but was there only a few months before contracting an unusual “sleeping sickness” that put him in a coma for the last six weeks of his life. His remains were returned to Mt. Crawford where he was buried.
