Dormer Andrews

Sir Dormer George (Bob) Andrews (8 April 1919 – 28 June 2004) was a judge in Queensland, Australia.

He attended Taringa State primary school and St Joseph's College, Nudgee before enrolling at the University of Queensland in 1939.

[1] In October 1942, the Hurricane fighter he was flying was shot down and he sustained severe injuries that resulted in the loss of his left arm.

This choice was strongly opposed in cabinet by the Liberal Party, and Walter Campbell was appointed as a compromise candidate.

Andrews was appointed a Knight Bachelor in 1987[4] and received the Centenary Medal in 2001.
