Comments:I remember George very well and often wonder if it was "Accidental Self-Destruction." Because of some of the things we were talking about just before he went out on Guard Duty that evening>

Comments:George was my cousin. I was only 7 years old when he died. Thank you so very much for this page. I'm so happy to know that George has not been forgotten. I wish his father, my great uncle, could have seen this page...I think he would have appreciated it.
