The State : Rogers Couple Back in Home
Navy Captain Will C. Rogers III and his wife, Sharon, have moved back into their home on a cul-de-sac in the University City area of San Diego after five weeks in protective custody after the bombing of the van Sharon Rogers was driving March 10. Navy sources confirmed that about a week ago the couple quietly left the bachelor officers quarters at the North Island Naval Air Station, where they had been staying since shortly after the bombing. They remain under the protection of the Naval Investigative Service, the sources said. Federal investigators have speculated that the bombing may have been committed by terrorists in retaliation for an incident last summer in which Rogers, captain of the guided missile cruiser Vincennes, mistakenly ordered the downing of an Iranian civilian airliner in the Persian Gulf. All 290 people on board were killed.
