Rudolf „Rudo“ Božik, nesprávne aj Božík, bol slovenský stíhací pilot a letecké eso počas druhej svetovej vojny. Jedenkrát bol nasadený v bojoch na východnom fronte proti Sovietskemu zväzu. Oficiálne mu ako príslušníkovi Slovenských vzdušných zbraní bolo priznaných deväť zostrelov nepriateľských lietadiel. Počas Slovenského národného povstania ako príslušník Kombinovanej letky zostrelil tri lietadlá Luftwaffe, z toho jedno v spolupráci, čím sa stal najúspešnejším slovenským stíhačom v SNP. Potom slúžil v česko-slovenskom vojenskom letectve. V roku 1958 ho v rámci čistiek prepustili z armády. Následne pracoval ako baník v Handlovej, ale už za krátky čas nastúpil do práce v Lokomotívnom depe Leopoldov ako kandidát na rušňovodiča a potom až do odchodu do dôchodku v roku 1980 bol rušňovodičom-motorvodičom. Zomrel v roku 2000 v Piešťanoch.
