The son of a retired lieutenant colonel who had served in both world wars and the reserves, Anthony entered the U.S. Air Force in 1953. His career as a radar navigator in bombers spanned from Korea through the Vietnam War, both conflicts that left him extremely disappointed in the way they were conducted. Colonel Wolf continued to serve until 1974. He earned a bachelors degree in education and a masters degree in counseling, taught school for three years, then began work as a petroleum land man. He is among more than 500 men and women from the Shreveport-Bossier City area and beyond who graciously gave their time to tell us their life stories of service and sacrifice. Were presenting these stories as part of our Oral History Project, an ongoing effort to interview veterans of conflicts from World War II to the present. We also seek the life stories of eyewitnesses to and participants in the civil rights struggle, pioneers of the energy industries, those who created The Shreveport Sound in music, and others.
