In 1937 he volunteered for the International Brigade to fight against Francisco Franco in the Spanish Civil War. He saw action in a Hungarian battalion, was wounded, and returned to the United States in 1939.〔Obituary by Eric Pace, "(Leslie Kish, 90; Improved Science of Surveys )", ''The New York Times,'' October 14, 2000〕 when 1939, he finished his baccalaureate in mathematics at the City College of New York.〔

For the remainder of World War II he served as a meteorologist in the U.S. Army Air Corps. After the war he returned to the Department of Agriculture, but in 1947 he joined the University of Michigan faculty.〔 He moved to the University of Michigan "as a member of the newly created Survey Research Center, which later became the Institute for Social Research (ISR).
