About this story

Don Logan, longtime Las Vegas Aviators CEO, sits down with Vegas Veteran Voices to talk about leadership, Veterans, and what makes Las Vegas a true baseball town.

From starting on his birthday in 1984 to leading the Aviators into the brand-new Las Vegas Ballpark, Don shares the grit, work ethic, and passion that kept him in the game for over 40 years. He explains why you “can’t be scared... you gotta go get it”, how Las Vegas became a baseball city, and why supporting military Veterans is an obligation we all share.

In this conversation, we cover:
• Don Logan’s 40-year journey with the Las Vegas Aviators
• Building a baseball culture in Las Vegas
• What leadership really means: “First in, last out”
• The Honorary Commander Program at Nellis AFB
• Why Veterans and their families are at the top of his priority list

This episode is about more than baseball, it’s about community, resilience, and never forgetting the Veterans who sacrificed for all of us.

Vegas Veteran Voices is a Veteran-run podcast amplifying stories of purpose, struggle, and strength.

In their words

“That’s our obligation. And I put Veterans at the top of the list.”
