John Scott Hardy

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Bill Welter on November 9, 2004:

John was Air Force and I was Army so our paths only crossed once during our careers. I was a new Army Test Pilot assigned to Edwards AFB where John was completing his Air Force Test Pilot assignment testing new Fighter Aircraft. John and his family were kind enough to welcome my family to the Mojave Desert (Edwards) with a steak cook-out at John's home on Edwards. My two daughters were 8 and 9 and John had a gigantic steak for each girl. The girls thought it great that John was treating them as adults. He was a top notch Fighter Jock with a heart as big as the steaks he cooked for my girls....John soon departed Edwards and our paths never crossed again.

Rest in peace John
