EAST LANSING, Mich. –
A three-year letterman, Guerre played one year (1946) for Charlie Bachman and his last two seasons (1947-48) for Clarence “Biggie” Munn.
His journey to gridiron glory at Michigan State was nothing short of remarkable. After starring at Flint Central High School, Guerre earned his freshman numerals in 1942, at of all places, the University of Michigan. In 1943, Guerre enlisted in the Army Air Corps, serving from 1943-46 and earning the rank of First Lieutenant. A navigator on B-17 missions during World War II over Italy and Africa, he earned numerous medals during his time of service, including the Air Medal with two Oak Leaf Clusters and a Unit Citation with two Battle Stars.
