The memoir of Dusty Kleiss "Never Call Me A Hero" is about the life and times of a simple, humble, risk-taking Kansas boy who goes to the Naval Academy with the goal of flying.  He tells the story of primitive air power challenging mighty sea power in WWII.  Kleiss has three fatal dive bombing runs on Japanese warships at the Battle of Midway.  Co-Author Dr. Tim Orr talks about Dusty's history and even his 60-year love story with his wife Jean, that almost did not get started because of religious prejudices.
