Jimmy Stewart – Became A Bomber Pilot In The Air Corps
One of the most honored Hollywood stars, Jimmy Stewart enlisted in the army when his acting career was already at peak. The legendary actor always had a keen interest in aviation but could not follow it initially because of his father’s disapproval.
However, after his entrance in the entertainment business, he realized that flying was his greatest passion. But despite his vigorous enthusiasm, he was initially rejected by the army due to being underweight. An interesting fact about this eminent personality is that he is the only actor to have achieved a rank of Brigadier General.
