During flight training in Canada, he also attended the University of Saskatchewan. the United States entered World War II, he transferred to the United States Army Air Corps in May 1942. a stint training pilots to fly the B-24 Liberator, he was assigned to fly B-29s in missions over Japan from airfields in China. For each separate bombing mission of the B-29 squadron, fuel and bombs had to be ferried over the hump to the airfield, flying from India over the Himalayas in often dangerous weather conditions. Once the bombing mission over Japan was completed, the squadron would then return to India from China to begin the process all over again. Mr. Briel flew 38 of these missions. As well as flying combat and support missions as a B-29 commander in the China-Burma-India Theater, he was later based in the Mariana Islands. At the wars end, he returned to the U.S. and received a regular commission as Major in the USAF.

In 1970, Mr. Briel became owner, President, and later CEO of the Agency, and Chairman of the board, and served the agency during a 48 year career. He was also a Chairman of the Board of Millbury Savings Bank for 28 years and a Trustee for 46 years, a partner in Briel, Jones & Whiting, a President of the Board and Treasurer of Worcester Academy, a President and Secretary of the Worcester Club, and was a member of the St. Wulstan Society until forced to resign due to ill health.

He was a Corporator of the Worcester Art Museum and a member of the Collections Committee for 19 years, a member of the American Antiquarian Society and served as Director on the Council and the Financial Committee. His other Directorships included the Family Service Organization, Inc.; the District Society, Inc.; the Performing Arts School of Worcester, Inc.; the stead Hall/Goddard House; and the Sharon Art , of which he was also a Trustee.
