Air Medal? If Bronson flew missions over Japan he almost certainly would have earned an Air Medal. In addition he would also have a World War II Victory Medal and an Asia-Pacific Campaign Medal. These could be added to his biography based on the award criteria of the medals alone.

World's No. 1 box office attraction

[edit]

Despite written by a reporter in a smaller newspaper, characterizing Bronson as "World's No. 1 box office attraction" in early 1970s does not sound credible. There were hits like Godfather movies (with Al Pacino, Marlon Brando, Robert de Niro) and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Jack Nicholson), to name a few.

In 1921, the territory his parents were born in was part of Poland at the time. Only after 1945 were the borders changed. His parents would have identified as Polish. 32.216.106.2 (talk) 19:06, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
