The last name is "Mileski" and you could try William instead of Bill.

Ken, could I please double check this reference. Bill Miliski does not appear in Medline under this spelling, nor could I find the paper under a combined search using 'helicopter' and 'J Trauma'. If the paper is very recent it may not be listed yet on Ovid Medline which is usually about a month behind.

Thanks, Ian

Finally, the extremely provocative report in J. Trauma by Dr. Bill Miliski  
of Galveston comparing a period of time during and after availability of  
helicopter air ambulance, demonstrates no change in outcome after the helicopter  
service was terminated raises HUGE questions of helicopter benefit to all  
thinking people.
