Doolittle’s Raider speaks to the Cincinnati Chapter Sons of the American Revolution

Compatriot George Stewart
Chapter Historian

The Cincinnati Chapter has been very fortunate over the years to have many entertaining and informative speakers. The process of finding a speaker to attend luncheons can be a challenge. At a chapter luncheon in 2007, Chapter President Tom Geimeier introduced Mr. Tom Griffin, one of the last Doolittle’s Raiders, to tell his story. Mr. Griffin was also imprisoned in a Nazi prisoner of war camp where the “Great Escape” took place. He was a much sought after speaker and he lived in Cincinnati, Ohio. Mr. Griffin passed away on February 26, 2013 at a veterans home in Fort Thomas, Kentucky.
