William Thomas Levinson served in the U.S. Navy.
Trooper William Levinson was killed when his motorcycle collided with a train at the 12th and State Street railroad crossing. It is believed that his motorcycle experienced a mechanical malfunction which caused it to lurch forward and strike the slow moving train. Trooper Levinson was caught underneath the train and dragged approximately 350 feet. Trooper Levinson was a U.S. Navy veteran of WWII and had served with the Oregon State Police for nine months.

In tribute
I served 1985 to 1993. You served too, before the badge - different uniform, same idea. You go where you are sent and you do not get to pick the call.
Trooper Levinson served with the Oregon State Police.
Thank you for your service to the people of Oregon, and for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
— S. Vincent Anthony, U.S. Army 1985-1993
