Overview

Captain Bowell was twenty when he volunteered for the army following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Trained as a paratrooper, he jumped into Normandy on d-Day and fought in the Battle of the Bulge?two of the war's most decisive campaigns. Following World War II, he came home to St. Paul to get a college education, raise a family, make a small fortune in printing and plastics, and build the enormously successful Padelford Packet Boat Company. His life's story is a model for how he and others of the greatest generation shaped this country.
