1 MINUTE AGO: 80 Years Later, Glenn Miller's Plane Was FINALLY Found!

Thank you for tuning in :face-blue-smiling:

I'm personally inclined to believe that Glenn's disappearance was just an unfortunate accident

Well im 72 years old and i grew up listening to Gken Millers music and ive always loved it

Im 70 yo. Have heard of and listened to Glen Miller and his music for my entire life. I have never heard of those that was his music critics. Not much on the opinions of critics.

What remains of the band was still touring all year about 20yrs ago and we had a chance to see them here in Vancouver. In an old dance hall with a horsehair dance floor, they didnt need mikes and amps, they literally FILLED the place and it was bordering on a religious experience. What a show.

I am 67 years old grew listening to his music. My had his albums, it was the beginning of rock and roll. It was just big bands. It was my Dad albums

The hotshot pilot of his plane is to blame. Forgoing orders to avoid a restricted area (bomb dumping area) and flying at wave top levels he put his passengers at risk. A single bomb exploding nearby could toss the aircraft into the icy waters of the English Channel. Swing music was banned in NAZI Germany there were teenagers sent to concentration camps or summarily inducted into the military because of their love of Swing Music. There was a made for tv movie about it in the 1980’s.

It was also speculated that Leslie Howard was also suspected of doing intelligence work for the allies in WWll. David Niven admitted that he had done intelligence work during the war.

I'm 76 and love big band music Glen Miller is my favorite learn to love it from my mother

Over ten minutes of my life used up and NOTHING about his plane being found. Disliked.

Growing up in the 60s my parents always played Glenn Miller. Also Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole (my favorite singer) and Benny Goodman.

I saw The Glenn Miller movie TV showing old movies. Loved it and the music. Sad to hear of his loss. He gave music to the Greatest Generation, allowing them to dance and play his music. Moonlight Serenade, Tuxedo Junction, and so many more. Thanks for airing this documentary. Another great talent gone too soon.

My Mother was English and was at a British Air Force base and had just come off of duty and heard some music! She went into the hanger and it was Glenn Miller and his band she said his music was just fantastic! ! R.I.P. Glenn Miller and my mum who passed away in 2019 aged 95

After all that, you couldn’t play one song!?!?!?!?!?

This dying in the arms of a prostitute is closer to what my daddy, who was a captain in WWII and had top secret security clearance, told me about Miller’s disappearance that was in top secret files he was looking through after the war ended. My daddy died in July of 1996 of lung cancer. He told me what he had seen in the Miller file a few years before he died. When I asked my daddy why he was telling me what he had found, he said he was getting older, had kept the secret for so long and felt he needed to tell someone what he knew. I asked him why he had never revealed what he had read in the TS files in the early 50’s and he said he had sworn an oath but it was time. I think my daddy stumbled on the truth and I am glad he told me what he read. I am now almost my daddy’s age when he told me……I miss him and my mother so much.

I am 78,listening to his music is a journey into my mother and father’s young life. The music of the early 40’s is a history of AMERICAS GREATNESS GENERATION! Still love all the Big Bands and listen every chance I get !

The crew of an RAF Lancaster bomber could not drop its bombs over Germany and was dumping their bombs in a designated bomb dropping area in the English Channel. They dropped a load of 4,000 lb bombs and watched the shock wave tip Miller's plane over and crash into the water. They confessed sometime in the 1970s or 80s.

2019? It’s been 5 and 1/2 years, what is he waiting for?

I love the movie but always wonder about what really happened …. Moonlight Serenade !!!!

IN THE MOOD…..
