Honoring

Marvin J. Miller

Aviation Explorer Squadron 8 remembers Marvin Miller, a dedicated Advisor, flight instructor, volunteer, and mentor. His commitment spanned over 40 years, inspiring countless young aviators. Even after "retirement" from the Post in 2019, his legacy continues as an example for Post 8 Advisors & Scouts.

We are grateful his course crossed ours, and we trust he now flies in clear skies with fair winds at his back.
