Cpl. Leonard Grant Dake
United States Army
from:Pine River, WI.
My father, Leonard Dake, never talked about the war. The only story I know is he always said "You don't know what hunger is, until you catch and eat a raw chicken.... if you were lucky". For his service he was awarded the Purple Heart.
