Who was Daniel Hogan?
Daniel Hogan was a sailor in the United States Navy.
Hogan entered the Navy on board the schooner USS Revenge at Boston, Massachusetts, in 1811 and transferred to frigate Constitution February 18, 1812. During the War of 1812 he won distinction on board Constitution in an engagement with the British frigate Guerriere. When Constitution's flag was shot away from the main topgallant masthead, Hogan climbed the rigging and lashed the colors to the masthead. This action was to prevent the enemy from thinking Constitution had struck her colors.
In later action between Constitution and Java on January 3, 1813 he was severely wounded, losing the fingers of both hands. He died on September 1, 1818.
