As a freshman, Walt Disney took night courses at the Chicago Art Institute. Disney at 16 then dropped out of high school to join the army only to be rejected. However, Disney was able to join the Red Cross. After his service, he went to France to drive ambulances. A year later, Disney returned home to then find himself with no job. Yet Disney persevered, getting himself a job with Pesman-Rubin Art Studio. Finally Disney started "Iwerks-Disney Commercial Artists" and the journey to Disneyland begun.
