Captain Dean H. Dalton

[sacktimesally]

I  am  looking  for  relatives   of   Captain , Dean H. Dalton .   He  was  the  co-pilot   on  a  mission  to  Bremen  on  November 26 , 1943.  Sad   enough  ,  the  aircraft  was  hit  by  German fighters  and   the  B-24 ( Sack-time Sally )  crashed  in  my  village  af  birth  ,  Opeinde   in  the  Northern part  of  the  Netherlands .
Besides  Captain  , Dean H. Dalton  , five  crewmembers  died  in  that  crash , only   four  of  the  crew  could  bail out .   

Although  it  is  67  years  ago  ,  we  have  established  a  monument in  Opeinde ,   in  dedication  of  the  six  airmen .  We  were  very  happy  that  the  Navigator  of  the  Sacktime Sally   , mr James H. McGahee  ,  was  here  in  the  Netherlands  to  uncover this  monument . 

We  have  traced   a  lot  of  relatives  but  still   we  are  not  able  to  reach  a  relative  of  Dean H. Dalton  .


his  service number 0-424924,  lived  in    Joplin Missouri.           Married   with  Betty J. Dalton.
With  kind  regards  from , Johan Kuiper  , Opeinde  the  Netherlands

Thanks  for  the  help   ,  ( sorry  for  the delay )   .   At  this  moment  ,  I   can tell   that  there  is  contact   with  mr Eric Dalton ,  his  Great  Uncle   was  ,  the  late  Captain Dean H. Dalton   , who  served  in the  USAAF  ,  and  was  a  killed  in  a  aircrash , November 1943  here  in the  Netherlands .

But  ,  I   hope   that  there  are , still ,  more relatives who  might  have  some more  information  about  Dean Dalton , and  maybe  have  a picture  of  him ,  before  the  WW2  ?

Regards  , Johan Kuiper , the Netherlands
