DILLON HILLIER: SOLDIER OF CONSCIENCE

Fresh off the plane from northern Iraq, where he’d just spent two months at the front lines of the fight against ISIL, Dillon Hillier sat in his parents’ stone farmhouse near Perth, Ont., last February talking about the bold things he’d done.
He talked about going into combat alongside Kurdish fighters almost immediately after arriving in Iraq, about the ISIL sniper who missed him by inches and about the menial chores he sometimes had to perform, like buying furniture for the general.
