Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. It remains my fervent hope you will be returned home after the passage of so many years.

Never forget.

Dear Maj John Hills, Thank you for your service as a Tactical Aircraft Pilot. You are still MIA. Please come home. It was just the 75th anniversary of D-Day, and we should remember all of you who served. Watch over the USA, it still needs your courage. Rest in peace with the angels.

I will always remember you and your wife who I knew as Mrs. Hills. I lived next door to the family in Fort Walton Beach. My father was the one who notified Mrs. Hills. One of your sons was my best friend and I remember the day of your family's loss. You were a true inspiration to me. I will always remember You, Mrs. Hills and Rick.
