Duncan McCallum Allan enlisted 1 December 1915, in Queen's University 46th Battery Canadian Forces Artillery (C.F.A.), and was assigned No. 304576.

Duncan McCallum Allan stated that after the War "he could not imagine sitting in a lecture hall where one had to think; he had turned his head off." He joined a lumber company that sent him to the West Coast of Canada for approximately five years, where he met his future wife. Business was not his forte. He returned to studies, to graduate from the Palmer School of Chiropractic in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and then from the University of Pittsburg in science. This led to a position at the University of Toronto, in research, but when government funding to universities was decreased during the Great Depression of the 1930s, he was without a job. To make a living, he did various things and eventually taught Histology at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto, Ontario.
