George served in Mortars from August  1969-1970.  We first met George and his wife Carolyn in 2007 at the 3rd Annual 
B  Company Reunion in Branson, Missouri.  George was a soft-spoken, true country  gentleman.  
In 2009, at the Atlanta reunion, George and Carolyn reunited with  Loren Winebrenner and Bill Joe Williams,
 a very special reunion for all three. ---------Garry and Kathy Root
