This piece along with the others come from a multi generational family of military service going back to the Revolutionary War. The last member was Raymond Dailey, who had a 45 year career that stated in 1904 and served under General John Pershing and continued post war with a graduated position from the Quartermaster Corps Motor Transport and was recognized as a specialist in Motorized developments and requirements. He traveled with President Roosevelt on his "many mission of defense plants throughout the country, organizing and supervising motor transportation requirements for the Chief Executive and his staff". He retired in 147 but recalled to duty by President Harry Truman and seven as motorized expert for another year then retiring permanently.
