LARRY BROGDON 1961 - 1986 AIRCRAFT MECHANIC, LEAD AIRCRAFT MECHANIC, TRAVELING AUTO MECHANIC DEN FSM Funny Things Happen Five years ago my wife and I went on a four day chartered bus trip through east Texas and west Louisiana. We boarded the bus early and was watching the other folks arrive and board. I noticed a guy and his wife approach the bus and told my wife "I think I know that guy coming aboard" and the closer he got the more I realized it was Larry Brogden and his wife, Sue. I had not seen Larry in twenty five years. -Brady White, Central/Frontier 1955-1985 (11/30/10) Had our Central/Frontier mechanics get-together Saturday, October 25th at the Beacon Cafe 0n Hicks Field in north Fort Worth.
