George Crawford Honored during the Veterans Celebration with the Paul Haris Fellow.

Our own Rotarian George Crawford, a veteran of World War II, was honored during our Veterans Celebration when he received the highest Rotary recognition, the Paul Harris Fellow. The presentation was made by Mark Sutherland, Foundation Chair and George was escorted by Pete Cross.

George served in the U.S Army Air Corps, now the U.S Air Force as a Flight Engineer and Gunner on a B24 Liberator Bomber.  He flew missions over Germany when the ratio of returning aircraft was very low and the success of the German fighters was high. 

 George has been an active member of The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Rotary Club for many years. Over the years the so named "Geezer Table" of our Rotary Club has been graced by the presence of our oldest and only surviving World War II veteran.  The club has been regaled by his fantastic tales, such as going through customs with a monkey up his pants leg.

We congratulate George as the most recent recipient of the Paul Harris Fellow
