Julie Ann Cambridge: Hello and welcome! I'm Julie Cupak Cambridge, a genealogist and archivist. I grew up hearing stories about the Uncle we never knew. He was a gifted artist and at a very young age had established a successful career in Omaha, Nebraska. Though his success was in Omaha, he grew up on the east coast of Florida, a witness to aviation history. He had a strong desire to fly P51's. Having achieved both dreams of pilot and artist, Bruce Fleming Jepson, at age 27, was shot down over China in 1945. My mother simply wanted for him to be recognized and remembered. This is my task. I thank you for your visit. I'm so happy you're here! Let me know by following my blog.
