And the peace activist John Hogan has died at the age of seventy-three. On May 17, 1968, Hogan and eight others made national news when they burned 600 draft records with homemade napalm in Catonsville, Maryland. They were sentenced to between two to three years in jail. Other participants included Philip and Daniel Berrigan. They became known as the Catonsville Nine. The action was credited with helping to radicalize the movement against the Vietnam War. After his release, Hogan led a quiet life working as a carpenter but continued to speak out against war.
