Lichtenstein then left New York to study at Ohio State University, which offered studio courses and a degree in fine arts.[2] His studies were interrupted by a three-year stint in the Army during and after World War II between 1943 and 1946.[2] After being in training programs for languages, engineering, and pilot training, all of which were cancelled, he served as an orderly, draftsman, and artist.[2]

Lichtenstein returned home to visit his dying father and was discharged from the Army with eligibility for the G.I. Bill.[14] He returned to studies in Ohio under the supervision of one of his teachers, Hoyt L. Sherman, who is widely regarded to have had a significant impact on his future work (Lichtenstein would later name a new studio he funded at OSU as the Hoyt L. Sherman Studio Art Center).[16] 2ff7e9595c
