DETL Dr. Dunn was born in Los Angeles, California where he attended school through his undergraduate college years. Those of you from Los Angeles may be interest- ed to know that he attended Alpine Elementary and Atwater Schools. Junior high schools were just becoming popular. It was possible to elect to stay in the eight year primary school or to change to the new junior high system. The latter is what he chose, and attended Washington Irving Junior High School as part of the first group to start school in the then not-quite-completed buildings. Upon graduation, he proceeded to John Marshall High School where he com- peted on the Gymnastics Team, earning his varisty letter and on the Debating Team, while pursuing a college-preparatory course. World War II commenced but Dr. Dunn started the University of Southern California in a pre-medicine course. He became old enough to enlist while in his first semester in Naval Reserve V-12, a training program. He was called into uniform and the members organized into companies and assigned to barracks, on July 1, 1943. He found time to again compete in gymnastics and earned two varsity letters. Completing the three years of pre-medicine, he was ordered to Naval Training Center, San Diego, where he served as a dental assistant in Naval Reserve V-6. In late 1944, Apprentice Seaman Dunn was ordered to the University of Min- nesota, School of Dentistry. In 1945, after one and one-quarter years in dental school, the war over, Naval Reserve V-12 was disestablished and inactive duty orders sent. Dr. Dunn in 1946 received his inactive duty commission as Ensign, HVP. Two years later, married just before starting his final academic quarter to the former Joanne Norton, he received his Lieutenant junior grade commission upon gradua- tion June 12, 1948. After taking his California State Dental Board Examination, he requested active duty orders and reported to the Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, for duty. Other duty orders have sent him and his family to the island of Saipan, to Sangley Point, Philippines, Treasure Island-San Francisco, Mare Island, Moffett Field, USS Hancock CVA-19, and Washington, D.C. That family includes two sons aged 9 and 11, and a daughter, 7 who, together with Dr. and Mrs. Dunn live in the pleasant community of Bonita, near San Diego.
