Dear Major Lee Greco,
Thank you for your service as a Tactical Aircraft Pilot. It has been too long, and it's about time for us all to acknowledge the sacrifices of those like you who answered our nation's call. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

On December 6, 1966, a USAF F-4C Phantom II (#63-7521) from the 559th Tactical Fighter Squadron was returning from a Close air support mission when it hit a mountain as it descended through dense clouds on approach to Cam Rahn Bay Air Base in Ninh Thuan Province, RVN. Both crewman, MAJ Lee A. Greco and 1LT John M. Troyer, were killed in the incident. [Taken from ejection-history.org.uk and combatace.com]
