Descriere magazin:
During World War II, there were many ways that a B-29er could be killed: a ruthless enemy, the savage weather, an unforgiving ocean that stretched for thousands of miles, or the faulty engines of their own airplanes. But they all volunteered for it, and they continued flying--and dying--until they brought the war to an early end and saved hundreds of thousands of American lives. They were The Heroes We Needed. The Heroes We Needed is an epic saga about the courageous American airmen who brought the Japanese Empire to its knees and ended World War II with the greatest bombers the world had ever seen, the Boeing B-29 Superfortress, and one man\'s fight 70 years later to save their stories from being forgotten.

A new age of American air power was born. By the early 2000s, six decades after they helped save the world, over 1,000 World War II Veterans were now dying each day in the United States. As the Greatest Generation slowly faded away, Trevor McIntyre was horrified to see eBay flooded with their militaria from the war after they died. All of this history was being sold for easy cash, and their stories were in danger of being lost for good. That\'s when Trevor decided to act. After holding a piece of B-29 history in his hands for the first time whose story had sadly been lost, Trevor began a lifelong mission to save the forgotten stories of the B-29ers, the airmen who ended World War II, through the mil
