This is who "The Milburn G. Apt Memorial Basketball Tournament" is in honor of:
Captain Milburn G. Apt was a 1942 graduate of Buffalo Kansas High School . Captain Apt was honored locally with '"The Jet" chosen as the mascot of Altoona-Midway High School in his honor.
Apt was a Captain in the United States Air Force at the time of his death in 1956. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying cross in 2007 and his accomplishments have been highlighted in numerous books.
On 26 September 1956, he would be the first pilot to exceed Mach 3 when he flew the Bell X-2 Rocketplane to Mach 3.196 (2,094 miles per hour/3,377 kilometers per hour) at 65,589 feet (19,992 meters). Just seconds later, the X-2 began uncontrolled oscillations and came apart. Mel Apt was unable to escape from the cockpit and was killed when the X-2 hit the desert floor.
Next Tuesday, January 17, 2023, the Middle School Basketball games at Oswego, will begin at 7:00. Go Jets!!
