Mr. Speedy Hite (second from left), a U.S. Army veteran of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. Thank you for your service, Mr. Hite.Happy Birthday!
D.E. Hite, affectionately known as "Speedy" and by me as Mr. Hite, is one year older today. He is well known in the area, meeting many mornings with his regular coffee group at Kathy's Restaurant in Staunton, attending monthly SWAC Conservative Breakfasts, standing at attention at Support the Troops rallies, and showing up just about anywhere at anytime.
Mr. Hite was career U.S. Army, serving in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam before retiring and returning home to Augusta County. He is my neighbor and friend, and we are fortunate to have men like him who were willing to sacrifice to protect the freedoms we enjoy.
Happy "90-something" Birthday, Mr. Hite ... and may you be blessed with many more.
