Duesler (1921-2007) was born in Dodgeville, Wisconsin, but grew up on a farm in Barneveld and later in Madison. In 1940, he joined the Marine Corps and became a radio operator, later volunteering for Carlson's Raiders, the 2nd Marine Raider Battalion, F Company. Duesler served in World War II and participated in campaigns in Guadalcanal and Bougainville (Papua New Guinea). After the surrender of Japan, he was stationed in Guam and then North China. Duesler left the Marines in 1945 with the rank of Staff Sergeant.

Later in life, Duesler married a first grade teacher and they were happily married for twenty-seven years.
