During this stay and with his Commanding Officers permission he contacted the Yankees organization and requested tickets for the crew of the KENNEDY to a Spring training game and invited the entire Yankees organization for a tour of the ship while it was in Port Everglades.
During the course of the game Bill asked Mr. George M. Steinbrenner III who was the owner of the Yankees how would one get into the baseball business. Mr. Steinbrenner didn't hesitate and offered Bill a job to work for the New York Yankees.
