Kenneth Farrow GC (29 May 1924 – 30 March 2007) was an English Police officer and recipient of the Albert Medal, one of the highest medals for civilian gallantry in the United Kingdom, which was later exchanged for the George Cross. ==Early life== He was born in Sedgefield, County Durham, the only son of William and Christina Farrow. He was educated at Sedgefield Junior School, and attended St Michael's School, Buckingham Palace Road, after he and his family moved to London.〔 After working as a shop assistant from 1938 to 1942, he joined the RAF in 1942. He served as a rear-gunner on Lancaster bombers with No. 218 Squadron, operating from Suffolk on missions over northwest Europe, and was eventually promoted to Flight Sergeant. It was during his time in the RAF, in 1944, that he met and married his wife, Joan Chittenden.〔 After his service ended, he joined the Cardiff City Police, later the South Wales Constabulary, in 1947, and it was in this role he was awarded the Albert Medal, which he exchanged in 1972 for the George Cross. For several years he was a road safety officer with the force.
