the story is all we have to go on shadow. grandpa used to tell us these things when we were little bout how he seen the first real airplanes in the teens and how he served in the military later on. but he never really went into details as to why the name was changed least not to jessie and the rest of us grandkids. and i dont think any of our parents really bothered to ask honestly which makes me kinda sad since all of grandpas stories are now lost to us.
