Aside from 'kid' stories, Shep used to tell a lot of stories about being in the Army. He would often kid about being in the mess kit repair battalion, but was really in the signal corps which was the basis for most of the stories. He was in the service from July 10, 1942 to December 16, 1944 achieving the grade of T-5. From what is known he never went overseas spending a large amount of time in Florida.
