John "Lucky" Luckadoo

Rest well Sir- you gave everything you had for everyone .

Godspeed, sir.

I read his book last year. God Bless his Brave Soul. RIP, Mr. Luckadoo.

My utmost respect sir. Thank you for your service!

These heroes earned the right to be called "The Greatest Generation." RIP

I had the great opportunity of meeting John Luckadoo at the Dallas airport in the spring of 2024. He was going to Minneapolis to speak about his experiences. I was going home to Michigan after a brief visit with my daughter. He needed to rest before going through security and decided to take the seat next to me. We talked...What an experience! Unbelieveable!

Thank you for your service-RIP

Rest in well deserved, eternal peace. Thank you for your courageous service to our great nation.

A dedicated and courageous pilot who successfully served during a dangerous battle. Sincere condolences to the Luckadoo family, May God be with you to help you in your time of loss.

Thank you for your service. May your memory remind future generations of the great sacrifices that "The Greatest Generation" made.

Thank you sir for sharing your story with us "younger" vets at the Roll Call luncheon. Greatly enjoyed your story, reading your book and shaking your hand. What you and your fellow aviators did for our country will never be forgotten. Rest in peace. B.W., Arlington, TX

God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Thank you for your dedication and service during and after WWII. Godspeed on your next mission Sir.

God Rest every one of the Bloody 100. They were all heroes we can be proud of and sorry for their loss. They were Patriots. God Rest your Soul and all of your compatriots and God Bless all of your memories. Herman Stayman, retired USAF.

My prayers to Mr. Luckaboo's family. And my condolences. Thank you for your service.

Sorry to hear of the passing of John. May your family turn to God for comfort. The scriptures describe our Heavenly Father as a God of comfort. God knows the pain that death can bring and assures us that he will soothe our pain. May God bless your family.

My condolences to the Luckadoo family. It was an honor to have met Lucky and hear him speak. May his memory bring you peace in knowing he lived such a remarkable life.

My heart goes out to Lucky´s family. Words can´t express how grateful I am for ALL he sacrificed and endured to provide me with the life
I´ve been able to live. His amazing legacy, filled with heroism, is a testament to his courage...strength...and selflessness while enduring horrific events to provide a better life for future generations. Thank you, Lucky... and thank you to your family for sharing you with all of us!

It was my great honor to meet Mr. Luckadoo a few years ago. In the time I was able to spend with him, it was obvious that, besides being a man of tremendous grit and courage, he was also a gentleman with a kind and open heart. His biography,"Damn Lucky", illuminates those qualities and is emblematic of the drive and character of his generation. John Luckadoo will be missed by many.

Godspeed, Sir. Truly one of the greatest.

Although I did not know you, thank you for your service. May you rest in peace.

Thank you for your service Mr. Luckadoo. May your memory be a blessing. RIP.

God Bless hem
