Captain Bill Reynolds

Join us on Operation Insight as we host Captain William "Bill" Reynolds!

 

For some folks born and raised in the southern half of the Land of Lincoln, life might seem a little slow. Not so for the adventure-seeking Bill Reynolds. No, life moved fast for Bill, and when the speed wasn't to his liking, he found a way to pull some Gs even when he wasn't supposed to! Captain Reynolds flew all types of aircraft, from the T-33 Shooting Star to the F-86 Sabre, and did so with panache. He had his fair share of close calls and enough "fifteen minutes of fame" to fill an entire book. In fact, he has authored two books: "Tiger 24" and "Inspirational Stories for You," both of which are available to our listeners at a discounted rate offered directly by Captain Reynolds himself (wreynolds12@bluetiehome.com). Beyond his piloting days, Bill served his community as an educator, and an excellent one at that! If it wasn't for him, many high schools in the St. Louis Metro East may not have as strong a Junior ROTC program as they do now. Mr. Reynolds has lived a life of adventure, but most importantly, he has lived a life dedicated to his family, his students, and his country. Even today, he continues to inspire those he meets!
