  • WILLIAM LEONARD Interviewer
    TRANSCRIPT—WILLIAM LEONARD Interviewee: WILLIAM LEONARD Interviewer: SAMUEL BAKER Interview Date: March 25th, 2013 Location: The Citadel, Capers Hall, Charleston, South Carolina Length: 1 hour, 38 minutes, and 15 seconds SAMUEL BAKER: Hello, good afternoon. Today is March 25th, and we’re here at The Citadel for the Veteran’s History Project. And today I’m going to be interviewing Mr. William Leonard. Would you want to start off by telling us about your childhood here in Charleston beforehand? WILLIAM LEONARD: Let’s start by that I guess. I was born in Charleston, 97 Tradd Street, in May 17th, 1925. I was born into a family, two sisters, older sisters, and one brother, and I was the youngest in the family. And my mother was from the old, one of the old families of Charleston. And my father was what we call a maverick in Charleston. He was a fella that was born in Alabama—Birmingham, Alabama—and he came here when he was two years old in 19—in 1896. And he was never a Charlestonian. But he married into a Charleston family so that made him be, be, in. He always—my father doesn’t like Charlestonians. SB: Very well, fair enough. WL: But anyway, made him a little [bit of an] outsider. I went to local schools. And ended up by going to a school in Mt. Pleasant because they started a new school over there, and they had girls in there, and I was 16 years old and was quite interested in girls. Graduated from over there in 1943, and immediately my father put me in The Citadel.
