Laurence Wild (May 1, 1890 – May 26, 1971) was a United States Navy Captain , college basketball player and coach, and the governor of American Samoa from August 8, 1940, to June 5, 1942. Wild was born in Wilber, Nebraska ,[1] 4th Congressional District of Nebraska for much of his adult life.[2] [3] United States Naval Academy in 1913; while there he played for the Navy Midshipmen basketball team , and was named a 1913 NCAA Basketball All-American .[4] [5] head coach of the team for one year (1913–14), coaching for ten games and winning all of them.
While a Lieutenant Commander , Wild served as a communications officer for Submarine Squadron 11 .[6] President of the United States Franklin Roosevelt recommended Wild for the rank of captain in 1939.[2]
During his governorship, a more complicated political structure arose in American Samoa when Brigadier General Henry Louis Larsen of the United States Marine Corps became Military Governor and Island Commander of Tutuila . Though Larsen outranked him and commanded the military on the island, Wild held the senior position, and ultimately maintained control over the administration of all the islands in American Samoa.[1] airfield on the main island.[1] Coronado, California on May 26, 1971.[1]
