He was born in Brazil, Iowa on March 31, 1917, the fourth son of Edwin and Emma (Allison) Lowe. He went to school through the third grade in Brazil.

He then went to high school in Cincinnati, graduating in 1936. Harold taught at the Carr country school in 1936-37.

Harold mainly handled mortar shells in the supply line during the Allies push through France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and finally into Germany. He came home around October 18, 1945. He said his small part in helping defeat Hitler, and the Nazis, was his biggest accomplishment in life. Harold went to meat cutting school in Toledo, Ohio on the GI Bill after he returned home.
