John Ulrich's legal name was Ulrich Baker; however, all his family and many friends called him Bill. He enrolled in high school as William and continued using William. For some reason, when he enlisted in the Army, he enlisted as John Ulrich Baker and used that name the rest of his life. He hated the name Ulrich, as he said nobody could pronounce it correctly.
