Harvey Weir Cook, born in Hnadcock County, Ind., was a aviator in both world wars. Assigned to the 94th Pursuit Squadron in World War I, Cook was credited with 7 victories including 4 balloons and earned two Distinguished Service Crosses. During World War II, he was killed in New Caledonia while flying a Curtiss P-40 during battle in 1943. Indianapolis renamed its airport in the 1970s for marketing purposes. Good Luck........Veterans!
