GEORGE ANDREWS 

 

from the Permian Basin Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial:  Captain Andrews was flying F-100D tail number 56-3069 from Phang Rang Air Base on a close air support mission near Thuy Dong, about 30 miles west of Saigon. His aircraft was hit by ground fire as he was making a weapons run against an enemy sampan. Captain Andrews did not eject before the aircraft impacted in an unsurvivable crash.  George was married to Gayle Carrol Andrews of Big Spring, AK.  They had one son, born in 1964.
