Franklin Hogan (November 26, 1842 – March 29, 1933) was a decorated hero of the Union Army in the American Civil War.

War service

Hogan mustered in as a Corporal in Company A, 45th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry Regiment on August 16, 1861.

According to the Military Times Hall of Valor, on 30 July 1863, while serving with Company A, 45th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment, in action at Petersburg, Virginia, the 45th charged into the huge crater caused by Union forces exploding tons of gunpowder under Confederate lines. In A. P. Hill's counterattack, the color-bearer of the 6th Virginia Infantry attempted to plant the regiment's battleflag at the top of the crater's parapet. Corporal Hogan shot him down and seized the colors of the 6th Virginia in Mahone's Virginia Brigade in Anderson's Division in Hill's III Corps.

Rank and organization: Corporal, Company A, 45th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry Regiment. Place and date: At Petersburg, VA., July 30, 1864
