Remembering a fellow Rhode Islander
While studying the Vietnam War, I was assigned to research several people from Rhode Island who gave their lives during the war. I learned that you, Capt. George J. Bedrossian, 28, of Providence, RI, were born of Ebraxee and Peter Bedrossian. You were married to a woman by the name of Glenda. During high school you were a member of the honor society at Central High School, graduated, and attended Providence College. You joined the Air Force in 1962 where you were a senior navigator. You were killed on May 9, 1968 in a crash over Vietnam. At this point in my life, I am in the process of applying to get into the National Honor Society. I cannot imagine what it would be like now, at the age of 18, to be applying to the National Honor Society just like you did. Now I am registered for the draft. I cannot imagine what it must feel like to get an order that tells me that I am going off to fight in a war.
