Hindenburg:

Continued From Page 14 which were sailors stationed here at the time. This disaster claimed 36 lives which included 13 passengers, 22 crew members and one worker on the ground,” Captain Ingargiola said. “There were 62 survivors, many of whom jumped from the flames and burning wreckage and ran as fast as they could. They were the lucky ones.”

Suwak’s remarks noted a future NLHS project that will help bring history alive. “One of the big initiatives we have right now is to continue beta testing our AR augmented reality and fly virtual replicas of some of our lighter than air and other aircraft so we can preserve that history, explore it and teach it with modern technology.”

“Imagine seeing a nearly exact replica of the Hindenburg flying above us in the airfield through an Ipad on a museum app. We are looking for support with the project. It is incredible technology,” she added.

Prior to the ceremony, Ocean County Historical Society (OCHS) member Bill Shannon handed Jablonski a piece of material from an airship and asked him if he thought it might be from the Hindenburg.

“This was what was on the Navy airships, the K-ships that went out for U-Boat patrol,” Jablonski said, quickly identifying the item.

Shannon told The Manchester Times, “We got it as a donation and we want to put it out on display but we want something with it to identify it. We have a lot of stuff for the Hindenburg there already (at the OCHS museum in Toms River) plateware, pictures of some of the people, survivors and some that didn’t make it.”

Man Indicted For Th reatening To Shoot Amazon Driver In “Racist Neighborhood”

By Chris Lundy

LACEY – A township man was indicted on charges of Bias Intimidation and Terroristic Threats for telling an Amazon driver that he’s in a racist neighborhood and asking whether he should be shot in the head.

Police said John Vincentini, 62, of Lacey was driving when he followed an Amazon delivery driver into a cul-de-sac. Using his vehicle, he blocked the way out and then confronted the driver. He asked the driver why he was in the neighborhood and asked the driver if he understood that it was a racist neighborhood. Vincentini then allegedly asked the driver whether he wanted him to go back to his car, get his rifle, and shoot him in the head.

The Amazon employee drove away and called Lacey police. This incident happened on September 5, 2022. Vincentini turned himself in to police a month later. He was released on a summons pending future appearances in court.

Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer acknowledged the efforts of Senior Assistant Prosecutor Ashley Angelo and Assistant Prosecutor Julie Peterson who presented the case to the Grand Jury on behalf of the State, and commends the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Bias Crime Unit and Lacey Township Detective Bureau for their collaborative efforts in connection with this investigation.

Ch arges are merely accusations until proven in a court of law.
