Millett in 1998 at Schofield Barracks, HI when he was our Honorary Regimental Commander. He pulled out a portable lawn chair and watch us do machine gun crew drills in his Class A's. He talked to us afterwards; explainng some of his life lessons from combat, and told us to challenge ourselves to always improve at our combat skills. He spoke honorable of the men he served with and recounted some of their last moments as if it were the day prior. You could tell he was a great leader who loved his troops by the way he took time out to mentor a handful of privates. He explained that things had been too quiet for too long to get comfortable and that we would be called on someday. You could hear it in his voice and see in his eyes how much he wished to be in the ranks with us. He was a true warrior's warrior; and one of the reasons I still serve today. Rest in Peace "Easy 6"! We will always honor your memory. CPT Isaac Hubbard I met Col. Millett in 1998 at Schofield Barracks, HI when he was our Honorary Regimental Commander.
