Found Daphne Evans 
22 Feb 2011
Story:
Hey Ron!! I was just browsing through the site and came accross your Letter about Daphne. Her last name was Evans. She had a house on the right just up from the traffic lights at Melton headed towards the A-12. We have lost touch with her through the years, but plan on a trip back there one day. It's only an hour down the road. Yep, we are still here 31 years later living in Brandon 6 miles north of RAF Lakenheath. Hope all is well, let us know if you need an English care package sent. I hope you get to see this, it must drive you nuts trying to remember a name, it does me.
Cheers,
Terry & Kathy Priddy.

Bill Bloomquist <bbloomquist(at)vfw.org>

My position: Crew Chief , SSGT 92nd Bentwaters

My years: 1981-1986

Now located: Associate Director National Headquarters Veterans of Foreign Wars

Message:
For the year I have been on this list I have been able to contact a lot of old friends from times gone by. I am still married to the same Brit for 25 years and have 8 grandchildren now. My passion is working with our veterans and assisting in getting their Claims for VA compensation.
Coming out of the Gulf War 80% disabled really made me think of those who need help going through the red tape of VA claims. The VFW is a great organization to assist those who need help in getting the entitlements they deserve.
You can contact me at bbloomquist@vfw.org for membership and assistance. We are Veterans looking after Veterans. My days in the UK were the best of my life I spent another 6 years up the road at Lakenheath after my assignment to Bentwaters. I then was sent to Cannon AFB New Mexico for 7 years with the F-111-Fs and then the EF-111A and the block 40 F-16. I left Cannon to Eglin AFB Florida for the rest of my career in the test wing with F-15, F-16. A-10 and C-130 test.
I retired in 2005 and have been working for Veterans ever since. God Bless you all Bill (Boomer)
