He attended several primary and elementary schools, finishing his last six years at South Moorden Men's College, where he finished his formal secondary education. Greene delayed his post-secondary education beliefs as he wished to work and travel Arcerion, and spent much of the next year moving between several jobs, both working for Arcerion Steel Corporation in Easthampton as a foreman, and then Royal Arcerion Fire Service as a firefighter in Easthampton. After this year of varied employment, he began applying to universities and colleges in Arcerion and the Republic of Alstin. Greene performed well on his University entrance exams, and accepted an offer from Ardmori Anglican University, the most prestigious University in Arcerion. At 18, he began an engineering degree for civil engineering, with a minor in philosophy, which he was enrolled in at the outbreak of the Second Great War. | ||
In 1935, with the beginning of hostilities, Greene and his two brothers went to the recruiting office together over the acadmeic witner holidays to join the Arcer Army. However owing to a clerical error, Greene ended up being enrolled in the Arcer Air Force. His two brothers continued on to both serve as infantry officers in the Royal Arcerion Infantry Corps, both being posted to the Royal Moorden Regiment, and then being transferred to the Arcerion Parachute Regiment at its inception. | |||
