AMERICAN PATROL - GLENN MILLER

Thanks CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing Glenn Miller performing American Patrol
Glenn Miller recorded the song on April 2, 1942 in a big band arrangement by Jerry Gray, where the theme "The Girl I Left Behind" can be also heard as an overlay. The song was released as a Victor 78 single, 27873A, backed with "Soldier, Let Me Read Your Letter"

CW5 Jack Cardwell, I grew up listening to the sounds of the Glenn Miller Orchestra. He was my parent's favorite "WWII big-band" and thus, became mine. His "sound" was different because he utilized a greater number of woodwinds and muted trumpets than did his peers to soften the music. Moonlight Serenade was his most famous, and became his signature song.
His death (lost over the English Channel in an airplane) on December 15, 1944 still raises controversy to this day.
