She received the United States Distinguished Flying Cross for this accomplishment. Amelia Earhart's plane disappeared in 1937 somewhere over the Pacific, just before World War II.

The Cuban Missile Crisis, The Bay of Pigs Invasion, the Nuclear Test Ban... read more John F. Kennedy had links with the Italian mafia, so it is possible that he was killed by this organization for reasons we will never know.
This organization could easily "organize" professional killings without leaving any trace or connection afterward.
Maybe the government killed him because they were mad that he shut down Operation Northwoods.
Lone gunman or second shooter behind the grassy knoll?

He was a talented yet troubled grunge performer. Kurt Cobain became a rock legend in the 1990s with his band. He committed suicide at his... read more The official cause of Kurt Cobain's death is suicide by a shotgun blast to the head. However, many have pointed out that the amount of heroin in his system was so high that it would have rendered him unconscious, making it unlikely for him to have shot himself.
Other troubling facts include discrepancies in the handwriting of his suicide note, which did not seem to match his own, and the lack of gunshot residue on his hands.
Isn't there a conspiracy theory that Kurt Cobain faked his death to escape fame? The backing for this theory is that the only photos released after his death never showed any recognizable body parts.

The Hogan's Heroes star Bob Crane was involved in what would now be considered a sex addiction. He was found bludgeoned to death with an electrical cord wrapped around his neck.
Years after his death, a friend who was also involved in his seedy lifestyle was tried for the murder but was acquitted by a jury, leaving Crane's murder officially unsolved.
Bob was killed in cold blood, and the mystery was never solved. Very sad.

He was the son of martial artist and film actor Bruce Lee and teacher Linda Lee Cadwell, the grandson of Cantonese opera singer Lee Hoi-chuen, and brother of Shannon Lee. He died (at the age of 28) during... read more Brandon Lee was shot by a gun during filming. The gun was supposed to be loaded with blanks, but for some reason - a very strange one - a real bullet was in the gun. Who put a real bullet in the gun for this scene?
It seems that nobody involved in the production was responsible for charging the gun. Additionally, what happened to the standard control procedures? A gun is always supposed to be checked before a scene, yet no one involved can be found responsible. Rumors suggest that someone might have swapped the blank with a real bullet after the gun was already on set. If true, this would imply murder rather than an accident.

He was murdered in America, and Americans are obsessed with God.
How he died is totally obvious. The question is, why did Mark Chapman kill him? Was he hired or brainwashed to kill him, and if so, by whom?
Bruce Lee (November 27, 1940 – July 20, 1973) was a Hong Kong and American martial artist, martial arts instructor, actor, director, screenwriter, producer, and philosopher. He was the founder of Jeet Kune Do, a hybrid martial arts philosophy drawing from different combat disciplines that is often... read more It is known that Bruce Lee took several medications before his death: Dextropropoxyphene (a light narcotic analgesic) for a back injury, Phenytoin (an anti-convulsant), and Equagesic (a combination of aspirin and meprobamate). All these drugs were prescribed by his doctor, Dr. Reisbord.
Equagesic is known to cause allergic reactions in extremely rare cases, potentially leading to death (cerebral congestion). However, the autopsy results were unusual. Some reports indicated that his brain appeared sponge-like due to cerebral bleeding, while others stated that the blood flow to his brain was not blocked, thus making cerebral bleeding unlikely. The official report concluded that an allergic reaction to Equagesic led to his death.
Due to conflicting opinions, rumors have circulated that a drug, which remains undetectable in the body after 36 hours, might have caused his death. The exact circumstances surrounding the drugs he took and why they led to his death remain a mystery, and since the case has been closed, we may never truly know what caused Bruce Lee's death.
