More detail on this person: I am now very
interested in his life, and in finding people who
knew him. Unfortunately, when I was younger, I
missed out on the opportunity to reach out to
friends of his who were known to me - Grady Oxford
and Dick Buxton, if those names are familiar - and
now am in the position of contacting strangers.

My purpose is simple. I want to listen to what
people have to say when I ask the question, "What
do you remember about Cecil Blanton?", and to any
other wisdom they might like to share.
Dad flew in 1967, C/Co, 229th, under the call sign
'Wagon Wheel 6'. I believe he would have been a
captain or major at this time.
