When WWII called him to duty, Bill trained as a Naval pilot. A dive bomber and head of his squadron, he was ready to fight when the war ended. The same day he got his wings, he married his love Fern. Back in Albany, Bill found himself once again in the butcher shop. Determined to do more, he tried several businesses, including crop dusting, before discovering that people seemed to really like his beef and turkey jerky, based on old Danish family recipes.
