Johnny, who was struggling to support his family, joined the Air Force. Gradually he became a pilot officer. Memories of Johnny in the struggle were copied on his beloved baby's smile and he received a letter informing Johnny Lee that Christmas was coming next Christmas. As people all over the country sang Christian hymns, Omana, who was waiting to hear Johnny's footsteps, received a message from Johnny, who had died in a plane crash.
