Son of Mr. & Mrs. John C. Hageman who resided in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.
Jack served as a Private First Class, Headquarter's Company, 32nd Infantry Division, U.S. Army during World War II.
He resided in Cuyahoga County, Ohio and was a member of the Ohio National Guard prior to the war.
His National Guard unit was called into full time active Army service on October 15, 1940, prior to the war, from Cleveland, Ohio. He was noted, at that time, as being employed as a Actor and also as Single, without dependents.
Jack was a passenger on C-46D #44-77360 that was assigned to the 70th Squadron, 433rd Troop Carrier Group, U.S. Army Air Force.
C-46D #44-77360 took off, with a crew of 4 and 21 passengers, on a ferrying mission from Elmore Field, Mindoro, Philippine Islands to Tarauan, Leyte, Philippine Islands.
They crashed, due to bad weather, into a mountainside approximately 4 miles northwest of San Roque, Leyte, Philippine Islands. The entire crew and all passenger were killed on this flight.

He was originally interred overseas and was later repatriated here on November 15, 1950.
Service # 20517390
