![]() This news is a bit shocking: ------------------------------------------------------------------- AVflash Volume 9, Number 49a — December 1, 2003 ------------------------------------------------------------------- LINDBERGH'S SECRET LIFE CONFIRMED Three German siblings said last week that DNA tests have proved what they long suspected: Charles Lindbergh was their father. The three, Dyrk Hesshaimer, Astrid Bouteuil and David Hesshaimer, were born in 1958, 1960 and 1967. They are not seeking money from the Lindbergh family -- their father visited them once or twice a year during their childhood and took care of them financially. But their mother hid his true identity from the children, a ruse that was made easier by the language barrier. Last summer, a grandson of Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Morgan Lindbergh, traveled to Europe to meet the Hesshaimers and agreed to take a DNA test, which proved their lineage. http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archive...ll.html#186185 Lindy was first to successfully solo the Atlantic from New York to Paris in 1927, and received international accolades for the feat. But just when you were getting over his repugnant eugenic beliefs, instance on a US policy of isolation in the face of Hitler's brutality, and crass acceptance of a Nazi decoration, more muck is revealed about this aviation icon. Once he cut Harry Bruno, his publicist, loose he began to sink into the quagmire of his personal beliefs. Perhaps his "secret family" was a hedge against another kidnaping. :-) |
