Posted: 12/31/1969 Name: Ross Hall Message: Got some bad intel on Col. Millet's desertion, but I found an interview with him so I'll set it straight. He joined the National Guard in 1938. He was in the Guard for 12 years before he became Regular Army. When he got the MOH in Korea, he was a Guardsman on extended active duty. He joined the Army Air Corps while a senior in high school, but heard a speech by Pres. Roosevelt that we would not fight Germany. He deserted and went into the Canadian Army. He trained in radar. By the time his unit got to England the US was in the war and he was allowed to transfer to the American Army, assigned to the 1st Armored Div. From there he went to North Africa. |
