PFC Troy Miller Thompson Jr, Vietnam Veteran, Native of Charlotte, NC.
Private First Class Troy Miller Thompson Jr was a casualty of the Vietnam War. As a member of the Army Selective Service and a Draftee, PFC Thompson served our country until September 26th, 1965 in South Vietnam. He was 21 years old and was married. It was reported that Troy died from drowning. His body was recovered. Troy was born on July 21st, 1944 in Charlotte, North Carolina. PFC Thompson is on panel 02E, line 095 of the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington D.C. He served our country for one year.
The Hilton Sisters, Violet and Daisy, are laid to rest in Forest Lawn Cemetery in Charlotte, NC. In a somewhat strange twist of fate the Hilton Sisters ARE NOT the most famous pair of Siamese Twins buried in North Carolina. That title has to go to Chang and Eng Bunker, the "Original Siamese Twins." Chang and Eng are buried up in White Plains, NC. They did share a grave marker with a man named Troy Miller Thompson, a young man who died in Vietnam. Apparently his father was an acquaintance of the Hilton Sisters in Charlotte and added their names to his son's headstone at the time of their deaths (1969). The burial site is in Section M, row 6 and 2 stones in from the road near the cedar tree. They have their own Gravestone now.
