WW2: Did The British Kill Glenn Miller? Famous American Musician, Band Leader



- Nov. 4, 2021. Mark Felton Productions. The disappearance of Glenn Miller, famous American musician and band leader, in December 1944 remains a mystery to this day. In this video, I examine the theories and some new evidence.

Dr. Mark Felton is a well-known British historian, the author of 22 non-fiction books, including bestsellers 'Zero Night' and 'Castle of the Eagles', both currently being developed into movies in Hollywood. In addition to writing, Mark also appears regularly in television documentaries around the world. More information about Mark can be found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Felton

I didn’t watch this one yet but there’s circumstantial evidence that RAF bombers dumping their bombs in the channel could certainly account for his disappearance. If the mission was called off for any reason it was standard practice to jettison bombs before returning to base.

Design in the 80s though they didn’t take any pictures and were advised to leave it where it was. Too bad, nowadays someone would have their cell phone camera and record it. Doesn’t sound like we’ll ever know for sure.
