The photo labeled Bender and his father is incorrect. The other man in the photo is Max Steiner, a jazz musician. Bender was the founder of the Max Steiner music society. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RobertoTenore ( talk • contribs) 17:44, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
In the paragraph titled Supernatural Encounters" Bender's claims are written as fact, and are uncontested and qualified only in partially. Considering how science almost completely disregards the claims made by ufologists, I wonder if this is really appropriate for an article in an Encyclopedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Die-yng ( talk • contribs) 19:50, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
Although I will not make an effort to edit the article, I will place a comment here to consider re: the history of the Men in Black. The first mention of MIB was connected to The Maury Island UFO Incident in 1947. Here is a link that discusses it. I won't try to edit the article about the Maury Island Incident either, as it is said it was a hoax. I disagree in that not enough was done to research the wiki. Initially, the witnesses said it was a joke but later, they recanted this and said that they were threated with their lives if they didn't refute their story. In addition, the Government said the B-25 bomber at McChord field was a "joy ride" by the pilots and then later said it was indeed on a mission to investigate Maury Is. and bring back debris (classified cargo) to Hamilton field Ca. that was collected. Thus, Maury Island is considered to be the origin of the MIB legend with Bender adding to it years later. I happen to live 10 miles west of where the B-25 crashed on Aug. 1, 1947. To me, Maury Island is a bigger story than even Roswell and preceded it by weeks. It was even three days earlier than Kenneth Arnold's sighting near Mt. Rainier when he coined the term "flying saucer." https://www.history.com/news/men-in-black-real-origins DarellPhillips ( talk) 10:16, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
