Mary Esther Wells (May 13, 1943 – July 26, 1992) 

Wells was first signed to Motown by Berry Gordy when she was only 
seventeen, releasing the song that became her first hit, "Bye Bye
Baby." She became one of Motown’s first superstars with a string of
hit singles composed by Smokey Robinson, including “Two Lovers”
(1962), the Grammy-nominated “You Beat Me to the Punch” (1962)
and her mega signature hit, “My Guy” (1964).

Major Howard “Scrappy” Johnson (above) set a world altitude record, when

M. Nixon presented him with the Robert J. Collier trophy for aeronautical
achievement.

Three months after the USO was founded, Bob Hope led a group of celebrities
to perform for airmen stationed at March Field (now March Air Force Base) in California—the beginning of a great tradition.
