Wizard
Posted for: MERLIN GEORGE ORR:
I remember LT. Orr as "Wizard" as he was nicknamed by the unit. I remember the early morning when he died, shot down on an emergency resupply mission. I remember arriving on site minutes after the crash as a pilot with Little Bear 21 (JoJo)and evacuating the one survivor. To the child he never saw - Your father was a leader and respected by all who had the pleasure to work with him. I think of him to this day.
