Early Life (1950-1968)
Curtis Lemay was born on November 9th, 1950 to a middle-class family in New Orleans, Louisiana. During this time, Lemay lived in New Orleans for 6 years before moving to Richmond, Virginia. During this time, he attended school and played baseball, making it to varsity.

In 1968, after his 18th birthday he was drafted into the Vietnam War.

Vietnam Service (1968-1974)
During Lemay's Vietnam service, he was apart of the 2nd mechanized cavalry and participated in the battles of Hamburger hill and in the Easter offensive. Assigned to a mechanized recon battalion, he avoided participation in front-line combat but did endure his fair share of fighting in skirmishes, ambushes, and small-scale firefights throughout the war. After dragging a fellow soldier out of a tunnel that was apart of the Ho Chi Minh trail, Lemay earned a silver star medal for his "brave actions". After the 1972 U.S withdrawal from Vietnam, he was promoted to a Second Lieutenant and stayed behind as a combat advisor to ARVN forces until he was recalled in 1974, shortly before the fall of Saigon.
