dec 11, 1928 - Wop May

Description:

The bush pilots Vic Horner and Wop May battled snowstorm and minus 40 degrees weather to fly anti-toxins to Fort Vermillion to stop a diphtheria epidemic that threatened to wipe out Métis and Native in the fort. They were apparently so frozen when they return that was necessary to lifted them form the cockpit.
