Delivering Cows By Air To South America Story By Elyria Kiwanis
Homer Homen, Medina County farmer, described a 1946 air trip to transport Holstein cows bought by two Colombian brothers. After forced landings in Pittsburgh and Miami, the plane reached Jamaica where a veterinarian initially blocked a sick cow but allowed continuation. A near collision over Cuba, 8000 foot altitude, 70 degree forecast, and 101 degree shade temperature marked the 690 mile Caribbean hop to Barranquilla and on to Bogota beside the Mongolia River. Next week's speaker will be Rev. Father John E. Duffy survivor of the Bataan Death March. Guests included Clayton Sooy, Loren Neiper, and Eugene Hubbard.
