Mack, Jr.</div> </div> <div> <div>LOC Summary</div> <div>When Pearle Mack tried to enlist on December 8, 1941 and was rebuffed by a racist recruiter, that didn&#039;t stop him from launching an Army career that took him through three wars. Whether providing logistical support for Patton in World War II, running a transportation outfit in the frozen wastes of Korea, or serving as an intelligence officer in Vietnam, Mack kept his cool in the face of further insults and rose through the ranks. What he learned in his last tour of wartime duty was that the herbicide Agent Orange doesn&#039;t discriminate among soldiers.</div> </div> <div> <div>LOC Contributor Names</div> <div>Pearle W.
