Windy Night Memory by Jack Chubb, a former Crystal City Resident
I remember an eerie windy night in 1945 or 46 in Crystal City when the city fire alarm went off caused by wire shorting out and a volunteer fireman, Patrick Crawford, was killed answering the call.
This was a tragedy for quiet old Crystal City. At that time Billy Crawford, Pat's younger brother, was a star football player for the Javelins.
