Not sure what to say?

When he was Wing Commander at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, I had the privilege of flying in his backseat a number of times. He was a great individual always had a great story and it was very important to all of us.

It was my distinct honor and pleasure to serve General Hildreth as his Senior Enlisted Advisor at 13th Air Force, Clark AB, Philippines. I think of him often, and Beth and family especially during the Christmas Holiday Season. R.I.P., General and Peace to the family.
