World War II veteran takes final trip to where memories were made
RAF ALCONBURY, United Kingdom – Tech. Sgts. Jeffrey Empson and Christopher Ackerman, 423rd Air Base Group Honor Guard, fold the U.S. flag during a ceremony for retired Tech. Sgt. Emil Dihlmann at the RAF Alconbury flagpoles Oct. 26. Dihlmann served at RAF Alconbury from 1943 to 1945 and he had such fond memories of his time there that his family asked if they could spread his ashes on the base.
