>Hi Ross,
>
>As you may or may not know, my trumpet player in the Great Pacific JB when I lived in Los ANGELES, Zeke Zarchy was Glen Miller?s best friend. Zeke played first trumpet in the Glen Miller Army Air Force band. He told us a lot of stories about playing all the concerts, radio shows, during the war, etc. 
>
>One evening after a rehearsal, Zeke started telling us about Miller leaving to fly to France to prepare things for the band to fly over in a couple days. 
>
>When the band arrived in France, they were surprised that Glen was not there to meet them. 
>
>He told us about them taking the band somewhere and then telling them that the Major was missing. 
>
>Zeke said that the only true things in the film, The Glen Miller Story was that Miller was married and he played trombone. 
>
>Zeke was in the band when the buzz bomb came over while they were giving a concert. Zeke said while they were playing, he could see the bomb flying right over them.
