Myron Teegardin was born in 1943. He grew up in San Diego, California where he completed high school. Not long after graduation, he enlisted in the Army. He initially trained as an engineer, but then went to Fort Benning, Georgia, for jump school, and stayed on there as an instructor. He was then sent to Korea to join the 7th Infantry Division. His unit was close the DMZ, and there were periodic clashes with small groups of North Korean infiltrators. He returned to the US late in 1963, and completed his enlistment working as a recruiter in Chicago.
