From the Wikipedia article
George Daniel Jones (1900 – 24 February 1969) was a Bristol gas worker, swimming organiser, coach, and school welfare officer. He was awarded the George Medal for gallantry after climbing a gas holder during the Bristol Blitz in November 1940 and removing incendiary bombs that threatened a large industrial and residential area, primarily The Dings, St Philip's, and Barton Hill. Alongside his wartime bravery, he was a prominent figure in Bristol swimming in the mid-20th century, founding Bristol Central Swimming Club and serving the club for decades as its secretary, treasurer, and coach.
