Born August 14, 1935 in Greenwood SC, he was the son of the late Elbert Devore and Margaret (Peggy) Scruggs Andrews of Greenwood. Ted was a 1953 graduate of Greenwood High School and a Distinguished Military Graduate of the Citadel in 1957.

Ted completed Combat Crew Training of the F-100 fighter at Luke and Nellis AFB in 1959 and then reported for combat crew duty in Toul, France with 50 TFW. In response to De Gaulle's refusal to allow nuclear weapons in France, Ted followed the wing to Hahn, Germany in 1960. He received the Award of Top Gun in 1960, remaining as pilot on combat crew status until rotating to the States in 1962 and was released from active duty. Ted joined the SC Air National Guard with check-out duty in the F-104, flying alert duty as air interceptor and was transferred to Al ANG with interceptor duty in the F-86L. He then went on to earn a degree from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1967 while flying with the TX ANG.

He rotated to the States in 1970 with assignment to support flying in the T-39 with the 9th Air Force at Shaw AFB, SC. After release from active duty in 1976, Ted was assigned to the Air Force Reserves as training officer in Chemical Warfare Readiness at Shaw AFB, SC. He retired from USAF in 1985 in grade of Lt Colonel with 28 years of service and remained in SC, where he continued as an airline and corporate pilot until 2000.
