Milt was a great guy, and I was fortunate to meet him a few times and chat. It turned out that one of my local friends- Mike Carroll was also a mechanic at Royal at the same time as Milt, and they butted heads for whatever reason. In the early 2000's Mike as a member of our local Pontiac club, and had just finished restoring a static display Vietnam era Huey helicopter as a tribute to the one he was a crew chief on. I had given them both the contact information for the other, and I know they spoke at least once.
