Denver "Bull" Randleman was born in 1920 near Rector in Arkansas. He left his farm in Arkansas in 1942 to volunteer for the airborne troops.

He joined at that time the Easy Company at Toccoa, Georgia, to complete his basic training. His military comrades nicknamed him "Bull" because of his voice and his size. Dick Richard Winters has told him he was one of the best soldiers that he ever had.

Denver Randleman died on June 26, 2003.
