	Unsung Heroes of World War II
		In the years of World War II, the Army Air Forces trained 193,000 pilots, 50,000 navigators, and 45,000 bombardiers, but top spot in the aircrew training programs went to aerial gunners.
		Certainly there were many aces among the gunners, but none appears in the official list of credits for enemy aircraft destroyed in World War II because of the difficulty of assigning individual credit when several gunners were firing at the same bandit.
		There is, however, one gunner whose name was celebrated in a popular World War II song, "Johnny Zero." Those whose memories go back that far probably thought, as I did, that he was a fighter pilot.
