In the Second World War, he was a navigator on daring and important reconnaissance missions for the Royal Air Force, and was decorated for his courage. Hill was born at Taunton, where his parents ran a sweetshop. He was educated at Taunton School, where he was a day boy, and where one of his contemporaries, though a boarder, was the future cricket writer Alan Gibson.
