Miller who is a major in the Air Corps Reserve, flew the hump over Burma during World War II. He recently inspected the Tj. oga radio station maintained at the home of 2nd Lt. Richard Kinnan, in charge of communications for the past two years, and senior officer in charge of the local group of Civil Air Cadets. At present there are four cadets in the Tioga group, and Lt.
