After the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, the Americans entered the war. Fats Waller was pretty quick off the mark with his marvelously rhythmic Cash For Your Trash. Glenn Miller, leader of America’s most admired dance band, disbanded at the peak of his popularity in 1942 to join the Army Air Force as a captain (later major). He continued to make great (perhaps greater) music with the bands of the AAF and AEF before his tragic disappearance over the English Channel in December 1944. Don’t Sit Under The Apple Tree (With Anyone Else But Me) was a wartime hit.
On December 15, 1944, Miller was to fly from the United Kingdom to Paris, France, to play for the soldiers who had recently liberated Paris. His plane (a single-engined UC-64 Norseman, USAAF serial 44-70285) departed from RAF Twinwood Farm in Clapham, Bedfordshire and disappeared while flying over the English Channel. No trace of the aircrew, passengers or plane has ever been found. Miller's status is missing in action.
There are three main theories about what happened to Miller's plane, including the suggestion that he might have been hit by Royal Air Force bombs after an abortive raid on Siegen, Germany. One hundred and thirty-eight Lancaster bombers, short on fuel, jettisoned approximately 100,000 incendiaries in a designated area before landing. The logbooks of Royal Air Force navigator Fred Shaw recorded that he saw a small, single-engined monoplane spiraling out of control and crashing into the water. However, a second source, while acknowledging the possibility, cites other RAF crew members flying the same mission who stated that the drop area was in the North Sea
