| Biographical/Historical Note |
The following is a video clip from an oral history interview with Harry Papageorge and Mary Kogianes. "HP: Things really changed just before WWII broke out. Anybody that could drive a nail could get a job at DDO, Defense Depot Ogden, as a carpenter to build all the barracks and all the facilities they had there. My dad rented the neighboring land around here, and us four kids, along with some neighbor kids, we did all the work. We raised tomatoes and sugar beets. We did some potatoes and onions. In 1944 I think it was, when the beet check came, it was enough that he could pay the mortgage off. There was quite a party at that old house that night. I remember him pulling that mortgage and burnt down, they set it on fire and it burnt right to his fingernail. MK: Then in the meantime the boys, my dad put some through college. We always called them the boys, my uncles. They're all gone now." |
