This website is dedicated to American World War Two veterans, and the members of my family who served with
bravery and dedication in the armed forces of the United States of America.  A tradition of service.

National WWII Memorial Washington, D.C.
Let us remember that each year, we lose thousands and thousands of WWII veterans.  With their loss we lose
their stories, their untold acts of heroism and sacrifice, and our own ability to honor them and personally thank
them for their service and bravery.
As preservationists and enthusiasts, we should endeavor to honor these men and women, by preserving our
collections, thus ensuring that future generations will learn of these aviators, soldiers and sailors, and learn of
their service to our great nation.  I am always honored to hear from our wonderful veterans, to whom we owe so
much.  (Click on the photograph above to go to the website for the National WWII Memorial in Washington D.C.)  
This monument is the very least that we owe to the greatest generation.    
In loving memory of my father and my uncles, Clint, Clarence, John and Benny.

Thank you for taking the time to visit the C.E. Daniel Collection.  This website was created to display items from my
private WWII aviation collection.  I am dedicated to the preservation of these artifacts as a living memorial to the brave
American aviators and airmen who defended our nation in the skies around the world during WWII.  This website is
dedicated to the men of the United States Army Air Corps, the United States Navy, the United States Marine Corps and
the United States Coast Guard who served proudly and with distinction during WWII.
My main goal is to preserve the groupings of items related to specific individuals in the hopes of telling their history and
stories of service as pilots and airmen in the United States military during WWII.  Too many times these groupings are
found on auction sites where the items are being sold individually, destroying the history behind the items, with the history
of the aviator or soldier being forever lost.  It is my hope to keep such groupings together, and tell the stories of the
airmen and soldiers, which would otherwise go untold.  You will find numerous pages on my website, each one dedicated to
the memory and service of an individual American aviator or aircrew.  Because of their sacrifice and service, we should
endeavor to never let their history go untold or be forgotten.  If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to
contact me at webmaster@danielsww2.com.  Thank you.
REDONDO BEACH VETERANS MEMORIAL
Redondo Beach, California
On Veterans Day, November 11, 2010, the Redondo Beach Veterans Memorial was dedicated and opened to the
public.  This beautiful memorial stands as a tribute to our veterans both past and present, and is located in my
hometown of Redondo Beach.  The Redondo Beach Veterans Memorial Task Force is continuing to take donations to
assist with the upkeep of this memorial, which brings attention to the service of Americans in all branches of service.  
In addition, loved ones can purchase a memorial brick in honor of their loved one who served our nation, with their
name, dates of service and branch of service on the brick, to be included in this memorial for all to see.  For more
information or to make a donation, visit the memorial website at:

Although my website is dedicated to the United States aviators of WWII, let us not forget that currently the men and women of the
United States Armed Forces are deployed around the world, serving our great nation and ensuring our freedom.  Thank you to the
men and women currently serving in our armed forces, and lets hope you have a quick and safe return to your family and loved ones.
