According to his obituary, "Mr. Jung was an accomplished sculptor and entered the Rome Prize Sculpture Competition and won a year's scholarship at Cranbrook Academy of Design [ca. 1937]. "Mr. Jung moved to Southern California in 1938 and then, with his bride, Doris, moved to Coronado in 1940. He worked for the Department of the Navy [U.S. Navy’s Public Works (ca. 1939-43)] during World War II.
