What really happened to noted American musician Glenn Miller? He took off from England December 15, 1944, on a flight to Paris where he was going to do a holiday concert in the newly liberated City of Lights, Neither he or his plane ever arrived. What happened is still unknown and probably will remain so until the wreckage is actually found.
Theories abound.
Was he really a spy on a mission to overthrow Hitler?
Was he killed by friendly fire from the British?
Did his plane experience problems causing it to crash into the English Channel?
These are things the three history detectives are going to investigate.

My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.
