RIP Col. Lewis Millett

[Cucui]

Damn , this saddens me profoundly. I met Col. Millett when I was a Wolfhound back in the day.

On a side note, for those that may not know, his son, Sgt John Millett was killed in the 1985 Gander crash, returning from a Sinai rotation with his unit 3/502 from the 101st.

Col. Millett spoke to 4/27 at a ceremony back in 96 when the 25th had their first ever Sinai rotation, he was in three color desert BDU's, had an orange MNF beret on, and basically said that the reason he was wearing the uniform was because of his son having served there, and because it made him very proud, that his regiment, the 27th was going to the Sinai.

There weren't a lot of gatherings like this when I was there, I'm sure glad I had the chance to hear him speak, and to have met him in person.

RIP Col. Millett , WOLFHOUNDS / NO FEAR Sir !
