Ed, do you recall any of your members having contact with the family of Capt. Al Dean, KIA early april (4-5-67 I belive) He was "loaned" to VMO2 for 3 months in late 66 and I crewed for him on a lot of missions. I requested to accompany the body home ( I came home 4-7-67) to the family and was informed......no way. If any of the family has contaced VMO6 members, I would appricate the chance to tell the family what a wonderful guy he was.
