Father Of The Falcons: Coach P'S Military Brats & 'The Game Of Life'

Marshall Patterson mentored thousands of Military Brats at Fort Campbell High School as a teacher, coach, administrator, and sometimes surrogate father. In the classroom and on the football field, "Coach P" prepared his students and athletes so that they would be able to compete--and win--in "The Game of Life." From absolutely nothing, Marshall Patterson launched the Falcon football program in the early 1960s and then built it into a perennial power in Kentucky. His great deeds on and off the field for more than three decades were responsible for shining the national spotlight on the Fort Campbell Army post. In the end, "Marshall's Boys" never forgot their Hall of Fame coach or the life lessons he taught them. Today, they're paying it forward by making a difference in the world--just like the man who influenced them and put them on the right path in life.
