Mr. Greer. Well, I have 2 years of high school.
Mr. Specter. And when did you complete this educational background?
Mr. Greer. I have to go back now.
Mr. Specter. Approximately.
Mr. Greer. About 1924 or 1925.
Mr. Specter. Would you outline in a general way what your activities have been since that time, up until your joining the Secret Service, please?
Mr. Greer. Yes, sir. I was born and raised on farmwork, a farmer. And I done that until I came to this country in February 1930. I worked for a period of time—I lived in Boston for a little while. I worked one summer on the estate of Henry Cabot Lodge. I was a chauffeur for a family in Brookline, Mass., for about a year. And then I went to New York, Dobbs Ferry, N.Y. I lived there for 13 years as a chauffeur for a private family in Dobbs Ferry, N.Y. Then I went in the Navy in November 1942. I got discharged on September 18, 1945.
Mr. Specter. What were your principal duties while in the Navy?
Mr. Greer. I was seaman first class. I did almost 2 years at Bainbridge, Md., with the seaman guard there. And then I was assigned to the presidential yacht in May 1944, until I was discharged in September. But most of my duty was at the White House in that period, that year.
Mr. Specter. And how long after discharge from the Navy was it before you joined the U.S. Secret Service?
