• Notes

  George enlisted in the Army at eighteen years of age in 1914. He attained the rank of Master Hospital Sergeant. He said that after flunking the physical examination for being under weight, he went out and bought a dozen bananas and returned after eating them to be weighed again and this time just barley passed. He received his medical training at Fort Sam Houston, Texas and served in the base hospital there until 1917. He was then sent to Long Island, New York and left the USA in June of 1917, to serve in France. He returned after the death of his father to help his family. George worked for Champion Papers for a time and then worked at Sayles Bleacheries as an electrician. Later he found a job with the U. S. Naval Gun Factory in Washington, DC. He lived with his family in Alexandria, Virginia until his death. ---------- Reference: Timothy Welch Stinnett GEDCOM, August 1995.
