Interesting life story of "Tex" Hill who just passed away. A very good read. I think this guy inspired all of us somehow. Boxer, Naval Aviator ( Saratoga, Ranger prewar), Flying Tiger, Army Air Corps, USAF/Texas Air Guard. etc etc.

Truly a sad day for those of us who will miss having him around us, but I'm also glad that we had him around while we did.

Godspeed Tex.
