Ever wonder who Logan Airport is named after? ✈️🪖 It’s not just an airport — it’s a tribute to a hometown hero. General Edward Lawrence Logan, born in South Boston, was a WWI U.S. Army Air Service major and National Guard officer. After his tragic death in a 1933 plane crash, Boston renamed the airport in his honor. Flying over Logan today isn’t just a scenic view — it’s a flight over history.
