Daniel Walker is the only son of Danny and Evelyn. Danny met Evelyn in later part of 1940. At the time she was dating Danny's best friend, who leaves to join the RAF and is later presumed dead. Danny and Evelyn are both transferred to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Three months later, Danny and Evelyn begin a romantic relationship.

On the night of December 6, 1941, Rafe comes back to find Evelyn and Danny together. After the attack, Rafe and Danny are preparing to leave. Evelyn goes to find Rafe to try and explain what happened between her and Danny. Rafe tells her that he asked God if he could see her face just one more time. He then asks her why she is staying with Danny. In tears, Evelyn tells him that she is pregnant with Danny's child. Rafe is shocked by the news, but promises not to the tell Danny.

After the Doolittle raid, Danny is shot while trying to save Rafe's life. He begs Rafe to have someone else write his name on the tombstone. Rafe then tells Danny that he can't die because he is going to be a father, but he promised Evelyn he wasn't going to tell him. Danny smiles at the news, then says that Rafe is going to be the father. He then dies in Rafe's arms. Once home, Rafe keeps his promise to Danny to raise his son and take care of Evelyn. She names him Danny in honor of his father.

In the last scene of the movie, we can see Evelyn and Rafe together with Danny's son visiting Danny's toombstone. Then, Rafe takes little Danny to go flying with the old red plane, the one with his father and Rafe used to play with when they were little.
