A HERO CALLED FISH

Army Major Dwayne Williams was affectionately called Fish when he was growing up because he was an excellent swimmer and athlete. From star athlete in his hometown, to college, to Private in the U.S. Army, To Ranger, to an Officer rapidly moving up the ranks, Major Williams displayed strong leadership and moral character that made him a role model. In a twist of fate, Major Williams had been at the Pentagon three months when he was killed on Sept. 11, 2001. A Hero Called Fish will challenge all Americans to live their lives after Sept. 11^th in a manner that would make them someone’s hero.
