Lawrence Johnson Hallett

Larry spoke often of his shipmate Jack Gibelli. Told me about standing at his hospital bedside and whispering to him..."Jack...you can shut `em down now." Which was fighter pilot jargon for shutting the engines down....and his friend passed away shortly after getting that permission from a dear friend. A great person, hero, and friend. Scott Hunter

My brother, Jack Cibelli considered Larry a brother. I met Larry in 2013. Jack and I did a road trip from Park City, Utah to Ft Myers Fl. We stopped to visit Larry. While he was preparing to cook, there was wine! Too much! Jack and Larry were sharing stories of flight school. They both flew the A4´s. Less than a year later Jack had a heart attack and was in a coma. I called Larry. He immediately got in his car to say goodbye. Drove straight through and made it in time before Jack...

Always enjoyed your remembrances of the Vietnam war and your missions in the A-4 Skyhawk. Godspeed my friend. Scott Hunter

I knew Larry Hallett while he was a US Peace Corps teacher at the high school. He taught Chemistry to my older brother. Every one loved Mr.Hallett. Ghebre Selassie Mehreteab

Larry will never be forgotten. He was one of a kind. A great character loved by many. RIP

Great guy. I noticed his miniature wings (pinned to his white linen lapel, naturally) and had a great conversation with him. What a man. I know you will miss him -- but I know you are proud of him too.
