  • Text ROOTS Sept15 Z
    AN AMERICAN SON OF SUFFOLK My uncle, Richard Daines, was born 23 August 1919 in Hyde Park, Utah, USA to Joseph Benjamin Daines and Martha Elenora Hansen. The family later moved a few miles away to Logan, Utah. Richard was my mother's brother and the 13th of 16 children - he often joked that he was the unlucky one! My Mom was a bit of a tom-boy and she and Richard were pals when they were growing up. His paternal grandparents were both born in Suffolk, England: Robert Daines in 1829 at South Elmham and Jemima Seamons in 1838, also in South Elmham. These grandparents had been great examples of faith, loyalty, unselfishness, service and hard work - and Richard made these qualities his own. Having chosen to serve a two-year mission to Missouri, USA for his church, Richard returned home to Utah on 7th December 1941 – the day of the Japanese attack on the American base at Pearl Harbour. He was soon in the military. Robert Daines b. South Elham 1829 Richard was sent to several army bases with (above) and (below) various assignments before later being transferred Jemima Seamons b. S.Elham 1838 to the U.S. Army Air Corps and trained as a pilot. After his flying training, Richard sailed on the Queen Elizabeth to England where he was assigned to the 495th Fighter Training Group at RAF Atcham, near Shrewsbury and flew P-47 Republic Thunderbolt fighter-bomber aircraft. Richard was very aware of his Suffolk roots when, just weeks later, he was posted to the 352nd Fighter Squadron that was part of the 353rd fighter group based in Suffolk.

  • The US Army Air Forces in WWII
    DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE HEADQUARTERS UNITED STATES AIR FORCE Air Force Historical Studies Office 28 June 2011 Errata Sheet for the Air Force History and Museum Program publication: With Courage: the United States Army Air Forces in WWII, 1994, by Bernard C. Nalty, John F. Shiner, and George M. Watson. Page 215 Correct: Second Lieutenant Lloyd D. Hughes To: Second Lieutenant Lloyd H. Hughes Page 218 Correct Lieutenant Hughes To: Second Lieutenant Lloyd H. Hughes Page 357 Correct Hughes, Lloyd D., 215, 218 To: Hughes, Lloyd H., 215, 218 Foreword In the last decade of the twentieth century, the United States Air Force commemorates two significant benchmarks in its heritage. The first is the occasion for the publication of this book, a tribute to the men and women who served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War 11. The four years between 1991 and 1995 mark the fiftieth anniversary cycle of events in which the nation raised and trained an air armada and com- mitted it to operations on a scale unknown to that time. With Courage: U.S.Army Air Forces in World War ZZ retells the story of sacrifice, valor, and achievements in air campaigns against tough, determined adversaries. It describes the development of a uniquely American doctrine for the application of air power against an opponent's key industries and centers of national life, a doctrine whose legacy today is the Global Reach - Global Power strategic planning framework of the modern U.S. Air Force. The narrative integrates aspects of strategic intelligence, logistics, technology, and leadership to offer a full yet concise account of the contributions of American air power to victory in that war.
