That's pretty much exactly what happened to George. He thought he could hit the fire really fast and jump out, but with the heat and oxygen depleted environment, the tragedy happened. We have a memorial constructed for him now, not far from where it happened. His family was very appreciative, but we all know it can never replace. We lost four others back in 77 on an old army 5-ton for the same reason. I work with one of the sons of those four to this day.
