Re: Phoenix - Valley of the Sun
No.
Shanty Hogan was a guy that lived around here. I think he went to college at U of A. He was a football player for the school. Then he joined the Army Air Corps to be a navigator for a B-52 during the war. Afterwards, he came back here. If I remember correctly, he made a career out of being the coach for Phoenix College? I don't know his full story. In fact, I never heard of him until this weekend. But, I suppose a lot of people around here knew who he was. Nearly 3,000 people attended his funeral.
I'm a member of the Honor Guard at Luke AFB. Since he's a veteran, we did his flag folding ceremony and played taps at his funeral.
I was only asking if anyone knew him because this is a thread for us Phoenician hybrid drivers.
