This is the biography of Bill Getz, a true teenage warrior. Bill was a 17-year old senior in high school on Pearl Harbor Day, 1941. Three months later, still in high school, Bill turned eighteen. Within two months, Bill was an Aviation Cadet in the United States Army Air Force. At age nineteen, he was the pilot-in-command of a four-engine bomber and ten member crew. Bill was indeed a teen-age warrior. This is his story.
