Inheritance of a noble family[edit]

Family coat of arms

Le Grelle[edit]

Le Grelle was born in Aalst (Belgium) into the Le Grelle family, a wealthy family dating back into the XVIIth century, ennobled in 1794 by Francis II, the last Holy Roman Emperor. His direct ancestor, Joseph J. Le Grelle (1764 – 1822), founded the Joseph-J. Le Grelle bank in 1792 at the age of 27[1]. The bank was thus the oldest bank in the country after the Banque Nagelmackers, founded in 1747. The Bank was minting its own currency.

His son, Count Gérard Le Grelle, the first Mayor of Antwerp, member of the National Congress and the Belgian House of Representatives, saved the Vatican from bankruptcy and received in 1852 the title of Roman Count from Pope Pie IX. By order of King Leopold I of Belgium the title of Belgian Count was registered and extended to all descendants in 1853. Le Grelle‘s grant-uncle Monsignor Count Stanislas Le Grelle (Antwerp 1874 - Rome 1957), friend of Eugenio Pacelli who was elected Pope in 1939 as Pius XII, Master of the House of the Pope and Papal Secret Chamberlain played an important role in the Vatican.[2]

Agie de Selsaeten[edit]

Selsaeten Castle in Wommelgem (Belgium). The family sold the castle in 1951, but Le Grelle father’s and cousin built houses on the 50 hectares estate.

Le Grelle's grandmother belongs to the Agie de Selsaeten family [nl]. His ancestor, Pierre Agie (1757), came from France and launched in Antwerp a trading company, competing with the Dutch Compagnie des Indes. His son Charles (known as 'Charles le Chinois') went to China and become very influential at the Imperial Court in Beijing. He travelled all the way to Moscow and was the host of Alexander I the Tsar of Russia. Napoleon, while in Antwerp in February 1798, stayed in one of the Agie’s houses. Charles and his son Gustave (1834-1909) were both Consuls of Russia in Antwerp.

Baron Romain Moyersoen (1870-1967), President of the Belgian Senate.

Moyersoen[edit]

Le Grelle’s maternal great-grandfather was Baron Romain Moyersoen [fr], a Belgian statesman, who was President of the Belgian Senate (1936-1939), Minister of Industry and Economy. After the liberation in 1944, he was asked to form the government by the regent, Prince Charles, but failed in his mission (Royal crisis). In 1946, Romain Moyersoen was appointed Minister of State. In his book Souvenirs politiques (1918-1951)[3], former Prime minister Count Henry Carton de Wiart wrote that in 1939 he told King Leopold III, that in those difficult times "the best man to lead the country would be Romain Moyersoen". According to the Belgian magazine Trends-Tendance: “He was without any doubts one of the most remarkable political figure of the first half of the XX century”[4]. His son Ludovic Moyersoen [fr] (1904-1992) was Minister of Justice, Minister of the Interior, Minister of Defense and Member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.[5]

Early Life[edit]

St Andrew’s Abbey[edit]

After his primary studies in Our Lady College in Antwerp, Le Grelle was educated in the boarding school of St.Andrew’s Abbey (Bruges). The very strict benedictine School, where King Philippe of Belgium studied, was reserved to the Belgian aristocracy and the political and business elite.

Touring the world[edit]

Bernard Le Grelle started his reporter and writer career while travelling. From Syria to Turkish jail, he travelled 17.000 miles from Antwerp to Kathmandu (Nepal) along the Hippie trail. From the Khyber Pass to Agra, Le Grelle was on the trails of Jacqueline Kennedy’s Pakistan, Indian journey 7 years earlier.[6][7] The expedition got press coverage and Le Grelle wrote a story for the Gazet van Antwerpen and for the Dutch, French and German editions of “Bonne Route” magazine. In 1970-1971, Le Grelle travelled from Montreal to Patagonia (Argentina). In Guatemala city, he recorded the story from an Austrian diplomat on how a covert operation carried out by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) deposed the democratically elected Guatemalan President Jacobo Árbenz in 1954. In the jungle near Puccalpa (Peru), he interviewed a former Nazi SS officer, and in Asunción he got an interview with the grant daughter of Alfredo Stroessner, the US backed ruthless dictator.

Studies[edit]

In 1969, le Grelle got a Bachelor degree at the Faculty of Economic, Social and Political Sciences (ESPO) from the Saint-Louis University, Brussels and in 1973 a Master Degree in Social and Political Sciences from the Catholic University of Louvain (UCL).

First steps as a journalist[edit]

The 1974 class and JFK[edit]

In 1973, Le Grelle entered the international division of Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. At this time, he began to focus in John Fitzgerald Kennedy. JFK has influenced Le Grelle's since his early life and has played a major role in his professional path. Le Grelle read every article about the President and the First Lady. Among students of the school were Zachary Sklar[8], who met Jim Garrison in 1987, helped him rewrite and edited his book On the Trail of the Assassins and wrote with Oliver Stone the screenplay of the movie JFK. There was also Robert Pear, who gripped by President John F. Kennedy’s assassination when he was 14, recorded every moment of television that weekend on a reel-to-reel tape recorder and collected an archive of newspaper coverage from across the country[9] and Jean Lesieur, famous French journalist, author of the book Murder in Georgetown, The CIA and the Secret Love of Kennedy. At that time, Le Grelle spent hours on the JFK assassination, especially on the Warren Report. Le Grelle wrote his master project on Inga Arvad, a Danish-American journalist, known for her romantic relationship with John F. Kennedy from 1941 and 1942.

From WCBS to the United Nations[edit]

In January 1974, Le Grelle was hired as a trainee reporter to work with Jim Jensen, the anchorman of WCBS Evening news. At that time, he realized the interview of the Special FBI Agent William F. Higgins, Jr.[10]. Le Grelle got unpublished information on the Watergate linked case, but also on the JFK assassination. Le Grelle chose “The United Nations Office of Public Information” for his master project. He interviewed Yuri Seppokrylov, First Secretary of the USSR’s Mission to the United Nations, who gave him first-hand information on US-Russian secret agreements during the Yom Kippur War, which were used by Teltsch for The New York Times. He tried to cultivate Le Grelle but the FBI warned Le Grelle that he was a Russian spy. Le Grelle also interviewed numerous UN diplomats and Ambassadors (John Scali, who played an important role in the Cuba missile crisis of 1962, Louis de Guiringaud, Carlos_Ortiz_de_Rozas [es]), head of States and governments (Mobutu Sese Seko about the CIA in Congo).

Bernard le Grelle was appointed director of the National Air and Space Bicentennial Agency by the French Presidency in 1982.[35] In June 1982, he was approached by Larry Mihlon, a former member of President Kennedy's space team, to set up a similar organization in the United States and became a founding member of the US Bicentennial Committee. The United States Organizing Committee of the 1983 Air and Space Bicentennial Committee included Senator Charles Mathias[36][37], appointed Chairman, President Ronald Reagan, Honorary Chairman and Vice President George Bush, Honorary Vice-Chairman General Clifton von Kann (Director), President of the National Aeronautic Association, Anna Chennault, Senator John Glenn, Senator Barry Goldwater, Apollo 17 astronaut and Senator Harrison Schmitt, Scott Crossfield, Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins and Walter J. Boyne, Acting Director of the National Air and Space Museum. On July 12, 1982 Senator Mathias introduced S.J.Res.270, a joint Congressional resolution to designate 1983 as the Bicentennial of Air and Space Flight.[38] The Resolution passed the House by Unanimous Consent on December 20, 1982 and was signed in the Senate on December 21, 1982.[39] On January 3, 1983, President Ronald Reagan signed the Official Proclamation to designate the year beginning January 1, 1983 as the Bicentennial of Air and Space Flight, which became Public Law (No: 97-413).[40] On November 9, 1982, Mathias, Mihlon and Le Grelle did organize a ceremony in the Senate caucus room in the Russell Senate Office Building to launch the Bicentennial Year.

The White House organized a ceremony for the Bicentennial with President Ronald Reagan on February 7, 1983 to commemorate the Bicentennial Year of Air and Space Flight. Following his remarks, President Reagan, escorted by Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins, inspected the model of Columbia shuttle. Senator Charles Mathias, Chairman of the Bicentennial Committee, presented Walter J. Boyne, Acting Director of the National Air and Space Museum, with the Air and Space Bicentennial logo which flew in space with the Columbia shuttle mission STS-5 in November 1982. The logo was the subject of the first televised commercial from space when mission commander Vance Brand displayed it for television and is now part of the Museum's space collection.

In December 1982, Senator Mathias suggested to have a Space Shuttle at the 1983 Paris Air Show. The space shuttle Enterprise prototype was flown, in June 1983, atop the 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (SCA) during the 35th Paris International Air and Space Show. Americans fenced off the Space craft until the night of the opening, when they flew it around the city at 3.000 feet for all of Paris to see. It flew over Roland Garros during the French Open. John McEnroe stopped playing, fell to knees, put up his hands and saluted the Space Shuttle while the crowd cheered in a standing ovation.[43]

In December 1982, Mihlon and Le Grelle came up with an idea to make the U.S. space program popular again and to convince the American taxpayer that the 211 billion dollar project was worthwhile. The idea was to send a female schoolteacher on the Shuttle, from which she would teach children a lesson from space. This would be relayed to all the schools in the United States via the public television network PBS. The White House accepted to support the project named the Teacher in Space Project (TISP). It was announced by President Reagan on August 27, 1984. 11,000 teachers sent completed applications to NASA. In 1985 NASA selected Christa McAuliffe, from Concord, New Hampshire, to be the first teacher in space, with Barbara Morgan as her backup. She planned to teach two 15-minute lessons from the Space Shuttle. McAuliffe died in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster (STS-51-L) along with the crew just 73 seconds after liftoff on the morning of Tuesday, 28 January 1986. [44][45] The incident was broadcast live on CNN. [46] When the explosion occurred, Bernard Le Grelle was aboard the Boeing 757 of Eastern Airlines bound to Miami, cruising at 39,000 feet above the Kennedy Space Center. Le Grelle, who was on the telephone with Charles Villeneuve, the managing editor of Europe 1 radio station, became the first and only journalist to report the accident live as he watched the explosion. The report was cited among the great scoops of Europe 1 Radio.[47]

Among others, he lobbied the security of the Channel Tunnel for James Sherwood. In 1984 le Grelle became the European partner of Gray & Company, founded by Robert K. Gray, former cabinet secretary of President Dwight Eisenhower, deputy director of the Reagan-Bush presidential campaign in 1980 and co-chairman of Ronald Reagan’s Presidential inauguration.
