Bill Hamilton(XXIV)

Bill is a military combat veteran who retired from the U.S. Air Force as a Chief Master Sergeant with over 30 years service. He had over 10,000 flying hours as a C-141 and C-17 aircrew member. He was awarded a Bronze Star for combat actions in Operation Desert Storm and several Air Medals for flying combat missions into Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Bill has always had a fondness for automobiles and has owned and driven Ford Mustangs since 1970. He presently owns a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 and enjoys driving his new Shelby GT500 daily. After his military retirement he became a non-union talent (background actor) at the suggestion of a friend who was in the business. He continues to enjoy the life as a TV/movie extra and says it's better than being a Wal-Mart Greeter and they feed you much better. Bill has been with his beautiful wife Ann for 35 years and a father with one son (William III) who is a navigator in the U.S. Air Force, and has three lovely granddaughters.
