        1. Captain
        2. Major
        3. Lieutenant Colonel
        4. Colonel

        1. Glenn Miller was a Major in the Army-Air Corps when the plane he was on disappeared over the English Channel on December 15, 1944. He was on his way to France to play for the soldiers of the newly liberated Paris.

      2. What Broadway show’s pit orchestra did Miller share with Benny Goodman and Gene Krupa?
        1. Girl Crazy
        2. Strike up the Band
        3. Oklahoma
        4. Show Boat

        1. After working with the Red Nichols Orchestra, Miller was able to find work in New York playing on Broadway. In 1930 he was in the pit orchestra for the Gershwin show Girl Crazy and met Swing Era legends Goodman and Krupa.

      3. What future television legend appeared in the Glenn Miller feature film Orchestra Wives?
        1. Milton Berle
        2. Red Skelton
        3. Jackie Gleason
        4. Lucille Ball

        1. “The Great One,” Jackie Gleason, had a small role as the string bass player in this movie from 1942. Hollywood was hoping to take advantage of the swing music that was now a national obsession. The film featured the Glenn Miller Orchestra as well as Bobby Hackett, The Nicholas Brothers and Tex Beneke. Gleason, of course, went on to greater fame with his role as Ralph Kramden on The Honeymooners. How sweet it is!

      4. What was first big hit for the Glenn Miller Band?
        1. String of Pearls
        2. Chattanooga Choo Choo
        3. Tuxedo Junction
        4. American Patrol

        1. By the spring of 1939, the Glenn Miller Band had become a national success with Tuxedo Junction, their first big hit reaching number 1 that same year. It sold 115,000 copies in the first week!

      5. Who played Glenn Miller in the film The Glenn Miller Story?
        1. Henry Fonda
        2. Dean Jagger
        3. George Montgomery
        4. James Stewart

        1. Lanky Jimmy Stewart looked the part in the 1954 bio-pic of the beloved bespectacled band leader. The adorable June Allyson played his wife. The soundtrack to the movie reached the top spot on the Billboard chart in May of the same year. Quite a tribute to one of the great bandleaders of the Swing Era.
