Leforest Earl Dodge Sr. was at Schofield Barracks Dec. 07 1945. Earl joined the Army 1940 and was 28 at the time quite old compared to most of the guys while while he was working in the CC Camp program. Then after his basic training in Fort Sills Oklahoma he was stationed in the 25th unit 35th infantry or in 35th unit or in the 26th infantry at Scoofield Baracks in Honolulu Hawaii. On that day he said he was in the mess hall when the attack started and said it was confusing because they didn't have any keys to get into the Armory for their guns, and their ammunition was at another location, but when they did get them they were mad as hell and put up a good fight until the planes all left. He said they did get a couple of the planes but the deaths and damage was terrific and he said he would never forget it.
He fought and lived through that attack and many more. He was wounded in 1943 on one of the many Pacific islands that he fought to take back from the Japanese. He was a highly decorated soldier for his combat duty at that time. and eventually he died from his wounds years later. In the early 60s he was a volunteer subject in the governments funded program on heart disease and new heart devices from which he got a personal letter of thanks from :President Nixon, for his courage and willingness to participate in a program to better understand the workings of the human heart for the betterment of mankind. He died in the spring of 1969.
