He graduated in the Class of 1924 and later served in the 104th Engineers of the New Jersey National Guard. In 1944, he was promoted to Brigadier General.

He was named Chief of Army intelligence in October 1953 but was relieved of his command 20 months later when Allen W. Dulles, Director of Central Intelligence, sent a scathing memorandum of complaints to the Pentagon. Although the contents of the memorandum were not made public, General Trudeau was noted for his vigorous anti-Communist statements, and he often clashed with other government officials over their differing views of Communist intentions. He returned to Korea to take command of I Corps.〔(Lieut. Gen.
