Pfeiffer enlisted in the army in August of 1945 was discharged that December. (Not sure how that worked with him still in high school, if it was an Army Reserve thing or if he was slated to go once he graduated but the end of the war changed that.) He went to Muhlenberg College and played a little basketball afterwards, appearing in one game with the Aces of the ABL.
