After Dean's release he was awarded the Medal of Honor and retired shortly
after that. I heard it was California but have no idea whereabouts.

Hi all-
Yes, Dean retired to Berkeley and frequented the University (where I went
to school and taught).
He was a somewhat controversial character, nonetheless revered, and he
liked to stay in the public eye. The press liked him.
Most here thought he was a great guy, down to earth, and a real hero.
