Heartwarming Tale of Another Hero

Luckily, we have another inspirational tale at your disposal. This is about a man named Vernon Baker who hailed from Cheyenne, Wyoming. He was born in the year 1919 and was the youngest of the three children his parents had. It was their grandparents who took care of them when a car accident proved to be the reason for the death of their parents. Baker aged four at that time but stayed strong and went on to complete his graduation from a high school in Clarinda, Iowa. He went on to do a string of menial jobs but had the innate passion of serving in the U.S. Army. Consequently, he got himself enrolled in the U.S. Army in the year 1941. A major evidence of his strong desire is that a rejection at the very beginning by the recruiter saying  “We don’t have any quotas for you people,” didn’t stop him from pursuing his dreams.
