William Hamilton was known throughout Kentucky and Indiana during his paramedic career as Bob "Mad Dog" Hamilton. He was one of the first two Paramedics certified in Jefferson County and worked as a Police Officer Paramedic for Jefferson Police EMS under the Medical Control of Doctor Thomas.

He contributed greatly to JCPD-EMS transitioning from "stretcher cars" to the modern ambulance. When the Jefferson County Police began to switch to "civilian" Paramedics and the Police Officer EMTs and Paramedics were told to transfer to other sections of JCPD, Mad Dog was one of the last to go because he loved EMS so well. When he was off duty and we became busy or a unit called for a backup, Mad Dog would go on the air from his home and say "Radio, SQ 43 is 10-8. Where do you need me to respond?" 

He was one of the charter members of the Jefferson County Police HAZ-MAT Team that has evolved into the Jefferson County EMS Disaster Response Team (DRT) and the Technical Rescue Unit (TRU).

After he departed from what is now Jefferson County EMS and the Jefferson County Police Department, he became a Sports Trainer at Saint Xavier High School. The program went through a major aspect of development after he became involved and now is considered one of the best sports trainer programs in the United States located in a high school.

Bob Hamilton was Marine Corp combat veteran.
