Dwight Eisenhower

Dwight Eisenhower was the thirty fourth president of the United States and a five star general in the army. He was responsible for the planning of the D-day attack in northern France and was the first supreme commander of NATO. He was born in Denison, Texas to David Jacob Eisnhower and Ida Elizabeth Stover. He graduated in 1909, but then worked at a creamery to support his younger brother's education. Eisenhower wanted to be a professional baseball player when he was a young boy, but didn't make the team, instead entering the football team. He went on to becoming a general in World War II, and eventually, the president of the United States.
