My name is James Rickey.  I am the son of Richard Rickey, the top turret gunner/engineer on Sac Hound when it was shot down over Belgium on March 2, 1944.  He was with your father and Wm Sheahan during the time they evaded capture with help from the locals.  My father is still living and would appreciate any pictures or memories of his crew's time at Deenthorpe UK.  Jean Dardenne from Belgium has been quite helpful in sending pictures and information about their time in Belgium.
