註釋
"They crossed the Rio Grande with the conquistadores, fought at Bunker Hill, shot the rapids of the Snake with Lewis and Clark, fell before the Confederate fortress at Port Hudson. They chased Geronimo, stood beside Teddy Roosevelt at San Juan Hill, won the Croix de Guerre on the Western Front. They blasted Japanese planes out of the sky over Pearl Harbor, saved their platoon in the mountainous regions of Korea, died in the jungles of Vietnam. Their names are lost in most of the annals of American history, their deeds unsung--Estevanico, Peter Salem, Jordan B. Noble, York, André Cailloux, Emanuel Stance, Edward L. Baker, Jr., Henry Johnson, Dorie Miller, Cornelius Charlton, Milton Olive III. Side by side with those who would be remembered, they played a vital role in the emergence and maturity of the United States."--Jacket flap.
