My story begins in May of 1940 with my graduation from
Menard High School in Alexandria, LA.
The Alexandria area was still suffering as a result of the 1929 Great Depression. There were very few jobs to be had and a lot of local stores were closed and boarded up.
In about 1936, the government realized war was iminent. Adolph Hitler had German people as well as most of Europe in a state of fear.
