I am trying to work out a way to increase the light intensity with a
dial for a regular LED from a dollar store flashlight. I don't know
much about the LED since I can't see any markings.
What would I need to buy from Radio Shack or an electronic store to do
this?

Google on LED driver. That should keep you occupied for some time. ;-)

If you wish to increase the brightness beyond that a constant current
driver can do you'll be into a pulse circuit.
