Dayton, being born in 1928, lived 96 years on this earth. He said no one could imagine how the world had changed in his lifetime. Yet, even through the hard times, he still would say, “what a beautiful world”. He left home at an early age and joined the Merchant Marines at the age of 16 in 1944 as WWII raged. In March, 1945, an enemy Submarine torpedoed and sank his Liberty Ship in the English channel while they were carrying ammunition cargo to France. If it had hit just a few feet to one side, the ship would have blown and the whole crew would have perished. He joined the Army Air Force in 1946 and was stationed on the island of Guam. Dayton said that it took a while for word to get to everyone that the war was over, so the fighting continued for some time. Dayton did not like to speak about his service. He did not want to draw attention to himself.
