Read More	Nels Algot Lind was born August 11, 1906. I was the first of five boys born to Charlotte and Gustuf Lind. My next brother Adolph being born nine years later.. In 1927 I attended The Hanson Auto School and Aviation school at Fargo. In the spring of 1928 I took and passed a Government Civil Aviation Mechanics Test, receiving my Civil Aviation Mechanics License at ere obtaining an Aviation Mechanics job with Canfield Flying Service at Fargo, also receiving my first Airplane flying lessons June 1928 at Hector field, Fargo, just a wheat stubble field then - no buildings. My experiences were many and very interesting. I met Carl Ben Eilson and Sir Hubert Wilkins first hand - shook hands with them, as I was one of only three people out at Hector Field. When this North Pole expedition plane landed there almost crashing in mud on take off the next day. We had had some very heavy rainfalls and that Red River gumbo is really something. I saw many planes damaged there because of mud.. I spent two years with Canfield flying Service, had 340 hours of Certified Solo hour time, also made a Parachute jump over the State Capital at Bismarck in a 45 mile an hour wind, drifting from just North of the Capitol between Fort Lincoln and the Missouri River just a short distance from the River.. The depression days interfering with my hopes of a career in Aviation, prompted me in securing a job at the Hannaford Garage starting there as a Mechanic the second day of April 1931 and continuing this line of work until March 1942 when I enlisted in the United States army being inducted April 10th, 1942 until September 21, 1945 when I received my discharge at Camp McCoy, Wisconsin. On Sept 6 1969 Nels Algot Lind was united in marriage to Jennie Wallum. Ceremonies took place at the (Our Saviors) Lutheran Church at Dazey, North Dakota. Rev Knutson officiating.. N. Algot and Jennie Lind have their home here in Hannaford and are Hoping and Praying that the future days will not be unkind to us.. Compiled By Nels Algot Lind.
