There he heard war stories from World War II veterans. One particular story about man-to-man fighting told by a Marine who said he had fought in the South Pacific arrested Dale's attention. He looked up the Battle of Iwo Jima that night and made up his mind to become a Marine.〔 But his father committed suicide when he was 13. His mother couldn't take care of him and he was shuttled from relative to relative. In the fifth grade he attended St. Joseph's Military Academy in Chicago and then attended high school at Missouri Military Academy in Missouri, graduating as a cadet officer.
