JOHNSON'S RANCH PRESENTATION

Johnson’s Ranch Presentation at the Cinnabar Theatre January 28th 7:30PM   BYOB

Through the focal point of the only documented aircraft crash at the ranch in 1932, the slide presentation will focus on the unique personal, cultural, and military aviation histories associated with a truly storied place, now but a remote marker and campsite on the River Road in the National Park. A forgotten photograph of a curious metal assembly found walking the area 17 years ago, leads to a search and rediscovery of the part, and the subsequent tying of it to the specific aircraft and crash. The story of the pilot, who later went on to be a German POW and a Brigadier General in the Air Force, helps illuminate a fascinating tale of survival, perseverance, innovation, and satisfaction in a pivotal era of the Lower Big Bend. A cool tale. BYOB with donations to Last Minute Low Budget Productions; Questions - Todd Bureau (432) 386-7846
