  "When there is something that has to be done...well, you've got to do it. I guess that's the definition of courage". - Ben Nicks
  
  Pacific theater, 35 mission B-29 pilot Ben Nicks and his brother Bill, a B-17 bombardier in Europe are two examples of the definition of courage - doing what needed to be done, in spite of what they may have wanted. These brothers, and so many like them are responsible for the freedom this Nation has enjoyed since the worlds' greatest war.
