Gene resided in Deschutes County, Oregon and enlisted in the Army at Portland Airbase on 29 Jan 1942. His serial number was 19047604 and he served in the U.S. Army Air Corps as a Major and B-25 pilot but he was stationed mostly in Columbia, South Carolina, during the war and did not go overseas.
After the war he had a sporting goods business in Redmond, Oregon for many years before becoming a Shell Oil distributor until he retired. Gene was a great rifle shot and one year won the North West Regional (Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and part of Montana) big bore rifle meet.
Ed was also an outstanding track and field athlete and set a new district record in the mile and half mile on the same day.
He is a descendant of William Alexander Endicott, the brother of Everett and Edward, and the uncle of Benjamin T. Endicott and George B. Endicott all of whom served in the U.S. military.
