Another quick note, Larry found the Guidry family, whose Dad escaped with mine.
I met with 2 descendants today - they were wonderful folks. Guidry would be so proud of his daughter and nephew.
Little bits of news came out - including that Guidry DID NOT swim. Separate from his not liking the water, he did not swim.
So if Dad and Guidry had to cross the River Sieg - then Dad had to use his Life Guard techniques to carry Guidry who was about 5'9" across. Christoph, you were right.
It was so exciting to meet them!
Thank you Larry for doing all of that research!
