Which hero did hera help?

Hera is a Greek and Roman goddess (also known as Juno) who is the wife of Zeus and queen of the gods. Her charge is marriage and she defends the ideas of it fiercely but, ironically, can not keep her husband from straying and ignoring her values. Hera's passionate personality plays a large role in how she reacts to certain situations; she can be incredibly cruel to her rivals or immensely helpful. She can be considered a hero in the myth of Jason and the Argonauts in which she helps him obtain the golden fleece -- an impossible task without her aid.
