This is about the Armistice Day Blizzard of 1940. It's a sad story. Blizzard

We in the Upper Midwest had a similar storm 'the Halloween Blizzard of 1991' fortunately modern forecasting prevented a similar tragedy.

The only real telling was from Gordon MacQuarrie himself, and that version is nearly lost. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-5508-200730-armday1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-5508-200731-armday2.jpg)
