A REAL Blast from the Past

I got an email today from Uncle Don in Chicago.  He has been in correspondence with a researcher in the Czech Republic who has found previously unpublished pictures of 
Grandpa Gimbel's final crash after being shot down while serving in the Air Force during WWII.  I am including the link to the picture and hope that you can see Grandpa watching his plane burn after safely parachuting out of the falling aircraft.  The two women you see running towards him were trying to find out if he was okay.


Interesting, isn't it?  Love you all.  Claudia and Edward
