Bill Norberg joined the U.S. Navy prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and his service on the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise placed him at some of the most critical engagements in the Pacific theater.
In this edition of "Veterans Chronicles, Norberg explains what it was like to watch the Doolittle Raid take off from the sister ship USS Hornet. He also walks us through the pivotal Battle of Midway, which permanently turned the tide in the war against Japan.
Norberg also describes operations from Guadalcanal to Okinawa, his role on the bridge of the ship, the threat posed by kamikaze pilots, and why he feels so honored to have served aboard the Enterprise.
