Better known among his friends as “Judd”, he was prominent in Croswell High School athletics, playing basketball, football and baseball.

By November, Sepsey and his comrades were deep in rugged jungle. They were not trained for jungle warfare and were under supplied and poorly equipped. George was assigned as a machine gun team leader. George’s team took part in the fierce fighting at the junction of the Sanananda Track and Killerton Trail near Soputa.
