Youth Days
William attended Arlington High School throughout his educative years and grew up in the town of Somers, New York. Ever since he was a little child, he dreamt of one day serving his nation in the military and rising through the ranks to become a sergeant.
Even at the tender age of ten, he communicated his intent to serve in the armed forces of the United States. It was only natural for his mother to be anxious. And she had every reason to feel that way.
