| C. LeRoy Meisinger |
In the last post, I asked if anyone could tell me what was Leroy's profession...hoping the image of a hot air balloon would stir up some interesting answers.
LeRoy's life was more fascinating than anything found in fiction. He worked as a Meteorologist for the U.S. Weather Bureau. In 1924, he conducted several experiments in a manned free balloon...which, I believe, made him the world's first Storm Chaser.
I am going to be starting a series of blog posts (and maybe one day something more than that) about my Grandfather's cousin, C. LeRoy Meisinger. Any clue as to what his profession was from this picture?
