As a young boy, he attended school in Norway and Crosby, ND. Frank always loved music and played in a City Band in Crosby, ND.

Frank entered the Army December 1932. He served in World War II. Most of his military career, he played French horn in the Army Field Band, where he was featured as a soloist numerous times. He traveled all over the world with the band. He retired from the military in 1955.
