After one year of college he enlisted in the Army, joining the 269th Infantry Battalion and served for three years during World War II in France and Germany. After the Army, he went to Columbia University where he earned Bachelor of Science and Master of Arts degrees in Music Education, and continued to earn another 60 hours of post graduate credit.
