     Owen Rodolf Engelstad was born on 26 June 1897 at Hamar, Norway.1,2

     Owen married Gerturde Fredrika Wikström, daughter of Frederick Carl Wikström and Anna Matilda Boström, on 26 September 1919, at Tacoma, Pierce, Washington.3

     The U.S. officially entered World War II on 8 December 1941 following an attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Just about a year before that, in October 1940, President Roosevelt had signed into law the first peacetime selective service draft in U.S. history, due to rising world conflicts. After the U.S. entered WWII a new selective service act required that all men between ages 18 and 65 register for the draft. Between November 1940 and October 1946, over 10 million American men were registered. The Fourth Registration, often referred to as the "old man's registration", was conducted on 27 April 1942 and registered men who born on or between 28 April 1877 and 16 February 1897 - men who were between 45 and 64 years old - and who were not already in the military. Owen filled out a draft card for World War II on 26 April 1942 (at age 44), while living at 2910 1/2 East Spring Street, Seattle, King, Washington. He was working for Olympic Steel Works, Seattle, Washington. He had a scar on his left arm.2

     Owen died on 11 September 1956, at Seattle, King, Washington, at age 59.1,4
