Win Mueller was drafted into the Army in 1942 and went through basic training at Fort Custer in Battle Creek, Michigan.

After training Win worked at Fort Swift in Texas, where he guarded POWs for another six months. Win later helped form the 106th Division and was sent to Europe where they eventually replaced the 101st Division in the Netherlands right before the Battle of the Bulge.
