I was trying to do some follow-up learning about what ever became of Ralph LeBlanc, who is mentioned in this Wiki to have had both of his arms and legs amputated due to the extent of his severe frostbite. I checked the article cited from the Sarasota Herald-Tribune and it seems to adequately back up these claims. However, in my own research I stumbled across an extended interview LeBlanc granted to James Fontenot for his program "En Francais" which was filmed in 1987 and aired on Louisiana Public Broadcasting (a local PBS affiliate) about his experiences regarding the Antarctic plane crash. The peculiar thing is that watching the interview, it is quite clear that LeBlanc appears to have all four of his limbs intact. Is it possible that the source for the article relayed incorrect information, perhaps mixing up Mr. LeBlanc's name with that of another individual on the plane?
