[Dixielandjazz] Cap't Jack Leroy Tueller 90 yr old trumpet man WWII vet

[Allan Brown]

Thanks for that great story. I'm not sure if it's already been mentioned on here but there's been a similar story recounted in much of the UK media recently about the piper Bill Millin, who has just died. I hope the link works, if not I can paste the story, but it's another remarkable tale of courage, music and, well to be blunt, stark raving madness.

All the best,
