Please remember Cpt. Johnny "Mike" Spann Monday

quote:

---

Spann lived in Manassas Park, Virginia[12] and was survived by his wife, Shannon, also a CIA employee, and three children. His ex-wife, Kathryn Ann Webb, mother of two of his children, died of cancer five weeks after Spann's death.

Damn

Spann graduated from Auburn. LSU-Auburn was postponed in 2001 after 9/11, and the makeup date was in early December. Spann was killed the week before the makeup game. I remember Spann being honored before the game.

I never would have imagined at the time the American involved in his death would walk out of prison less than 18 years later.

Then again, I wouldn’t have predicted the coach for Auburn at the time would be running for the US Senate, and the LSU coach would have built a dynasty at Alabama either.
