It has been over fifty years since band leader Glenn Miller's plane disappeared on its way to Paris in 1944. Since that time conspiracy theorists have claimed a number of different theories about the whereabouts of Miller and the nature of his demise. Some stories had Miller surviving and spending his last days in a Paris bordello. Others claimed that he actually survived the trip and later died in an American hospital.
Now another theory has been hatched, but this one comes with a full out deathbed confession.
In a book recently published by Author House Publishing Co., author Clarence Wolf confesses that the crash was no accident and in fact an accidental shoot down by United States military near Folkestone, England. Mr. Wolf reports that under instructions from radar monitors he participated by sending the order to shoot down a small unidentified plane. Upon realizing what they had done, his superior officer ordered him to never reveal the facts of the case, a secret that he has faithfully kept for the last sixty years. In his book titled "I Kept My Word," Clarence Wolf attempts to tell his story and set the record straight.
Whether or not you believe his account of the events of that day in 1944 this new book appears to be an interesting read that anyone fascinated with the life and disappearance of Glen Miller will want to see. I Kept My Word is published by Author House. More information is available at www.authorhouse.com. http://www.authorhouse.com/BookStore/ItemDetail~bookid~41462.aspx
