  • Imagine That You've Come Into a Lecture and There Are a Lot of People
    Transcription: Wayne Terwilliger ________________________________________________________________ Today is Friday, October 23, 2009. My name is James Crabtree, and I’ll be interviewing Mr. Wayne Terwilliger. I’m at the General Land Office Building in Austin, Texas, and Mr. Terwilliger is at his home in Weatherford, and this interview is being conducted in support of the Texas Veterans Land Board Voices of Veterans Oral History Program. Sir, thank you very much for taking the time to talk to us today. It’s an honor for us. Wayne Terwilliger: You bet, James. Yes sir. One of I guess the first questions we always start off is just ask you to tell the listeners a little bit about your childhood and what your life was like before you went in the military. Wayne Terwilliger: Well, that’s going back a long ways. We had two kids in the family. My sister is five years younger than I am. And my dad was a pro baseball player among other things, and so I got a little bit of a background that way, and I was into baseball from the time I could throw it against the steps, you know, in front of our house. That was a big thing with me. And I grew up like any other kid. We’d get a few guys together and go out and play the game, and I got involved of course. But my mother had to come out and tell me time to come in for lunch, you know, and time to come in for the supper, because I had been outside with the baseball in my hand throwing it against the steps more than anything else, and I always thought that kind of contributed to my getting good jumps on ground balls when I turned professionally.
