After 50 years I am reflecting on some of the finest friends I had in the Air Force. Dailey and I were crew members on the B-52G. We flew 89 combat missions from Guam. I believe he was responsible for our crew living threw it.
Dailey and I were the defence team on crew E-23 596th bomb squadron out of Barksdale AFB. He was the best EW I ever flew with, I was the crew gunner. In addition he was a great friend.

Dailey was a good man and a dear friend. He was my class leader in undergraduate Navigator training. We later served as instructors at the EW Officer training school. I wish I had more time with him. He was a mentor and counselor. A true American Hero.

I remember Daily as a smart, kind, patient man. He told me about his Bernese Mountain dogs. I hope he was greeted by those that have crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
