Leon D. Schultz
US Army
PFC
Leaf Valley, Minnesota is were I was raised and now I live just a stone’s throw down the road in Garfield. I volunteered for service to the Federal Reserve … and then it was off to the Army I went, serving from December 1957 through January 1959. I completed basic training at Fort Carson, Colorado and then was attached to the 281 Sub. Sup. Co. 7th Army. I worked in the warehouse in Heidelberg, Germany, receiving and distributing rations for our troops. I was the first person in my family to serve in the military. I’m forever proud of that.
For the 40 years that followed my time in the Army, we were dairy farmers. We’ve now left the milking to others since we’re retired.
My precious wife, Caroline, married me in 1964. We raised two incredible daughters and are now grandparents to six. In my spare time I enjoy fishing and hunting.
I have sat on numerous boards and committees, both in my church and throughout Douglas County.
