Title: Bill Shaffmaster
Post by: Paul Smith on November 12, 2016, 09:01:35 AM
Bill was a modeler and WWII veteran.  He came to work at GM as a temp in 1968, 23 years after WWII ended.  He was a Shriner and a member of our model club.  He was known to fly CL & FF, but like most he drifted into electric.

Bill was an Army captain in Italy, fighting the Waffen SS. 
He told me some insider veteran-to-veteran war stories. 
Bottom line: Bill lived 71 years longer than the enemy.
