Only 10,606 Days Late
This correction appeared in yesterday's New York Times:

An article in The Times Magazine on Sept. 22, 1974, about the movie actor Charles Bronson, who died on Aug. 30 this year, misstated his military record.

Publicity material asserting that Mr. Bronson had been a B-29 gunner in World War II , called into doubt by the article, was indeed correct.

(The magazine error came to light after it was repeated in an obituary on Sept. 2 and in some late editions on Sept. 1. The more recent error was corrected in this space on Sept. 18.)

And we appreciate his service.

Charles Bronson may he rest in peace knowing his military record is now corrected 29 years later by the NY Times,by the smae paper that misstated it in the 1st place.
