DeLand, Florida – Bibi LeBlanc, author of “Wings of Freedom – The Story of the Berlin Airlift,” embarks on a significant journey through Germany to commemorate the 75th anniversary of one of history’s most heroic humanitarian missions. Growing up in Berlin during the Cold War, Bibi LeBlanc witnessed first-hand the enduring impact of the Berlin Airlift on the city and the world at large. This trip is a tribute to the mission’s lasting legacy and its relevance in today’s divided world.

“In a time when divisions run deep over many issues, the story of the Berlin Airlift reminds us of the profound impact collective action and humanitarian efforts can have on shaping our world,” says LeBlanc. “It is a story of how unity, determination, and compassion can overcome adversity—a message that is as important today as it was 75 years ago.”

This trip is not only a journey back in time but also a mission to inspire current and future generations with the belief that they, too, can influence and shape the world for the better. Through “Wings of Freedom,” LeBlanc hopes to share a story of hope, resilience, and the unbreakable human spirit that unites us all.
