Letter from France helps Colorado family learn about their WWII hero grandfather

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 15:57:03 GMT

AURORA, Colo. (KDVR) — Brad Kemp, Stacey Reinwald and Shannon Fengler have a lot of their grandfather’s war mementos — a shadow box filled with medals, even a piece of fencing from where Leo Greggs was held prisoner of war by the Germans. But the most valuable reminder of his service randomly arrived in the mail a few months ago.“We got this letter in Aurora, Colorado, that had come from France,” Fengler said.The letter came from a woman in northern France. And the story she outlined on its pages surprised the Aurora siblings.“Didn’t really know the full story until the letter comes,” Reinwald said. Loveland veteran, 100, receives French medal for WWII heroics The author of the letter, Frederique Hazebrouck, said she knew about their grandfather, and how he was shot down in a plane called the Taletha Ann on March 26, 1944, in northern France. How did she know? Her own grandfather, Marcel Bellingier, saw it all happen and rushed to help Greggs, giving him food, first aid and shelte...
