World War II provided us with many larger-than-life heroes. The exploits of General Patton, Dwight Eisenhower, and Douglas MacArthur have been well chronicled in books, movies and songs. But there were perhaps thousands of heroes whose stories haven't received the recognition they deserve. This book is dedicated to one special hero; Benjamin Woodson Johnson Jr. Ben's heroic deeds are retold in vivid detail. Read how Ben valiantly served his country from the nose turret of the B-24 Liberator, Blues in the Nite. His early life and his life after the war are also documented. Ben was and will always be a genuine hero to his family.
