[@Poisson4147]

@@jamescampoccio1152 He did die in service, but not because the plane was shot down. Historians from his alma mater, the University of Colorado, did 2-year investigation about a decade ago. Miller was scheduled to travel to Paris on Dec. 12 1944 to finalize his orchestra's transfer to the Continent. He was repeatedly delayed by weather and opted to hitch a ride with a poker buddy instead of waiting. What he didn't know was that: > the flight was unauthorized and not cleared for travel > the plane, a tiny UC-64 transport, had a defective fuel system > weather over the Channel was still bad > the plane's pilot wasn't qualified for adverse conditions The UC-64 was seen by coast spotters on the standard SHAEF non-combat flight path, so it's known they weren't in a combat zone and were too far away from the RAF bomb-drop range to have been hit by jettisoned ordnance. The most probable reasons for the crash were either engine failure, pilot error, or a combination of both. 😢😢

Glenn Miller Orchestra Biography Alton Glenn Miller (March 1, 1904-presumably December 15, 1944), was an American jazz musician, arranger, composer, and band leader in the swing era. He was one of the best-selling recording artists from 1939 to 1942, leading one of the best known "Big Bands". Miller's signature recordings include: "In the Mood", "Tuxedo Junction", "Chattanooga Choo Choo", "Moonlight Serenade", "Little Brown Jug", and "Pennsylvania 6-5000". He's notable as well for playing numerous times for the U.S. military. While travelling to entertain U.S. troops in France during World War II, Miller's plane disappeared in bad weather. His body was never found. The Glenn Miller Orchestra was originally formed in 1937 by Glenn Miller. It's unique, tight and popular sound was produced by arranging for a clarinet and tenor saxophone playing melody, while three other saxophones played the harmony. Miller had already formed one band before this in 1936, but he dissolved it as he considered it too similar to other bands of the era. After the disappearance (and presumed death) of Miller in 1944, the band was reconstituted under the direction of Tex Beneke, its lead tenor saxophonist, singer, and one of Miller's longtime close friends. A few years later, the Miller estate, having parted ways with Beneke, hired Ray McKinley, principal drummer in Miller's Army Air Force band, to organize a new "ghost band" in 1956. The group went on, playing as a tribute to Miller's memory.

we'll never know what really happened to glenn miller but his music lives on.

It'll never be known 100%, but researchers at the University of Colorado found that the UC-64 carrying Maj. Miller had a history of fuel-system problems that could easily have caused it to freeze up in the cold air over the Channel. To make things worse, the pilot wasn’t instrument-qualified which leaves open the possibility that he lost "situational awareness" as bad weather closed in. Either one - or a combination of both - would have led to a fatal crash.

@@Poisson4147 Another theory is that a returning bomber that hadn't dropped all of its payload emptied its unused ordnance over the English channel (standard procedure - you didn't want to land with unexploded bombs aboard) and one of them hit GM's plane. The bomb wouldn't have to explode to down his plane. Just the impact would have caused catastrophic damage. I recall reading something about a gunner on a bomber seeing a plane below them on that day. Just a theory, though. Barring the invention of time travel, we'll never know what really happened. I'm just amazed at how much wonderful music he packed into such a short career.

@Tannhauser Thanks much for the reply. To answer your (implied) question I’m pretty familiar with that theory. It first gained a lot of attention in the mid-1980s when Fred Shaw, a former RAF airman, remembered a logbook where he’d recorded seeing a “kite” (slang for any small plane) being hit by jettisoned bombs. It happened on Dec. 15, 1944 so the immediate and reasonable conclusion was that he’d seen the Norseman carrying Miller, Baessell, and Morgan. However the log report raised almost as many questions as it seemed to answer. Among others, Miller was easily as popular in the UK as he was in the States so why hadn’t Shaw raised a flag at the time or at least shortly afterward? Second, the bombers were flying above the clouds while the “kite” was near the water, making a precise identification difficult. Third, there was a discrepancy between the time and place Shaw recorded for his sighting versus the plane’s expected flight path. Despite those open issues, for decades the dropped-bomb hypothesis stayed pretty much the only theory that got past Occam’s Razor. That all changed around 2014 when the U of C investigators turned up a coast spotter’s report that positively identified a Norseman flying low towards the Channel at a time and place that were both consistent with the standard route F/O Morgan would be expected to take from Twinwood to Villacoublay. There was only one other Norseman in the air that afternoon and it was far away from the southeast region, meaning the spotter had positively ID’ed the doomed craft. In addition the coordinates made it impossible for the plane to have been anywhere near the bomb-drop zone at the time Shaw saw his “kite”. The sighting essentially ended speculation over the plane’s fate except for the immediate cause. The Norseman in question was known to have had a number of fuel-system glitches that were awaiting permanent repairs, bad weather was closing in, and the pilot wasn’t qualified for instrument-only travel. Regardless of which caused the craft to go down the accident was almost certainly not survivable. The Norseman was a rugged plane so long as you were over land. Its fixed landing gear often turned ditchings into catastrophes, even on a small lake let alone the Channel.

@@Poisson4147 i've heard both theories and i guess we'll never know for sure. it was before i was born but even as a kid i loved glenn's music and all the music from that era. i think good music always stands the test of time.

[@steveperry1344]

@@Poisson4147 it's such a sad story when you think about the anticipation of all the people and military personnel awaiting to see glenn and the band and the poor guy and the pilot just disappear and that was that. i always think of that when i hear his music.

Love it 😀 I wish I could have afforded a band like this when we got married 😆.

My dad would have been ninety today, he loved Glenn Miller

[@thomasryan5736]

My dad in his army uniform and rimless glasses looked just like Glenn on an album cover when I was a kid. My favorite music, period

[@arturoleyva2205]

Saludos y gracias por proporcionarnos música de una época maravillosa y las otras que nos brindan son para diversos gustos para mi la música es parte de mi vida, todo lo disfruto escucho bailo y me entretiene.
