He shared this life with the love of his life, whom he met in fifth grade, and their love continues today.
Autoren-Porträt von George I Felt Jr.
George Felt Jr. is the oldest of 4 children of a family in Western Pennsylvania. His father was a policeman and a minister. His mom was the neighborhood's honorary Mom. He worked while in High School and ultimately joined the Marine Corps. After 3 years, he applied for and was sent to Flight School where he ended up flying jets. When he finished Flight School, in the Fleet, he flew the A-4 Skyhawk. There were 100 missions in Viet Nam and 7 months in the jungle as a Forward Air Controller. After Viet Nam, the Marine Corps sent him to Auburn for an engineering degree. When he retired, he became a Financial Consultant. Through interesting circumstances, he developed an interest in K-9 Search and Rescue. Eventually, he formed a 501.c.3 organization, teaching, handling dogs, and participating in true searches.

At 75, he have recently set three World Records.
