G, Hurst Paul is Now
A Colonel in Germany
Friends in Freeport have re-ceived-
word from- G. Hurst Paul,
secretary of the Chamber of Com-merce
in 1941, that he has been
made a full colonel at U. S. Army
headquarters, Munich, . Germany.
Col. Paul was mainly responsible
for the establishment of The
Leader as a strictly Freeport paper
'in that year.
Because of his service in World
War I, and the fact that for ten
years he was on officer in the Re-serve
Corps, he was commissioned
an Air Corps officer at the outset'
of World War II. Until Septem-ber,
1943, when he went overseas,
he was stationed chiefly at the
Rome (N.Y.) Air Depot.
For 18 months he was a staff
officer at Headquarters Eight Air
Force in England. Co Paul was in
London during the heavy aerial
blitzing of the Eiritush capital.
Later he was designated an In-spector
General, and saw service in
Belgium and Germany. Following
cessation of hostilities he entered
military government duty in Ger-many,
serving in Munich, Berlin,
and other places. For a time he
also was stationed in Vienna, Aus-tria.
His current terminal leave pro-motion
thus culminates four years
of overseas service. And he now
has been returned to Munich under
War Department contract for an
additional year in a special assign-ment.
